Need help identifying floor jack.

[wisconsin_cowman]

Picked up this old mechanical floor jack a couple of days ago. Been looking on the internet but haven’t found one made like this. Took me forever to find any markings to help identify the manufacturer but I did find on the bottom of the jack a stamping (B 8). Looking to do a future restore on the jack trying to find original colors if possible. Has been painted a couple of times by the looks of it. Thinking Blackhawk but don’t think Blackhawk made mechanical floor jacks. If I had to guess on when it was made I would have to say around 1920’s.

My Gut tells me "Walker", but that is strictly a guess based off some styling clues.

GJ member oldjacks has a very good grasp on vintage Iron, might pay dividends to send him a PM.

Sorry I'm don't stop on by the GJ too often anymore but looking at the components of this jack it looks to be an old Manley. And yes it would be early twenties for sure.

That's awesome!

I have been trying to identify the same jack for some time. Found it tucked away in the back of one of my Dad's barns. I thought it was a Manley, but could not verify via vintage ad or like jack. Anyone?

Clean it up, repaint. Dad would have loved it!
