Nice little score today

[jabberwoki]

Got a nice handful today sorry for the crappy pics
There's a smiths soft Arkansas sharping stone and pouch an old cman drill bit stand a goodle & prat dept gauge the needle nose pliers are west German no brand though a Bonney Chrysler mtsc award 13/16 spark plug socket the pair of weird spoon type tools (what are they for?) one a proto one a p&c a nice bonny brake spoon a neat old razor blade dispenser and an old otc puller and an old ford wrench plus ather misc stuff.
Does any body know what the puller in the 3rd pic and the proto & P&C tools in the 4th pic are for?

That "puller" looks like the tool used with a bar and a die to flare tubing. It would be for larger tubing I think.

Do the "spoons" look like they have been used as chisels?

Not really the P&C is concave and the Proto is flat with no sharp edges like a dull flat thick knife??? The puller has indents on both opposing sides and they`re both have angled surfaces?

The proto & P&C tools in the 4th pic makes me think of lead work on a car but I think the tools were wood. It has been a long time snice I saw it done.

Look at the link I posted, the Rol-Air flaring tool looks very close to that "puller".

I still think those are special chisels, Proto's closest one online is called a floor chisel.

Yep your dead on with the puller and the proto does have a chisel edge on it
the number on it is 14 5/8x 12

Believe it or not those "chisels" are not really chisels at all. They look like plumbers irons. More specifically a "yarning iron" and and either an "inside" or "outside" caulking iron. Those are still tools we use today when installing cast iron drain pipe with lead and oakum joints. Seems you didn't get a "packing iron" which we often use as kind of an "all-in-one" tool.

I have 4 sets of all 4 irons(yarn,inside and outside caulk, and packer).Also a couple ceiling irons. They are all Mephisto. I believe they are the only ones that still make quality irons today. I think they are also they manufacture of my furnace and ladle.
