After acquiring this little Blackhawk toolbox, I've been searching relentlessly trying to find some original and approximate date correct 7/16" drive items to fill it. I've picked up a few pieces off of Fee-Bay, and was lucky enough to find a good majority of them from a single CL listing.
Here's a link to a previous thread of the box:

And here's the box with some reunited and long forgotten "Nuggets":
Most of the tools date from the late 30's to early 40's and as you can see a lot of them have seen quite a bit of use.
The only ratchet that is 7/16" drive here is the one with the detachable handle that allows it to be shortened or lengthened. The two in the middle are what Blackhawk advertised as a small diameter head 1/2" ratchet, and the behemoth in the back is a 3/4" ratchet.
I think I was real fortunate to have found the 7/16" drive stud extractor as seen in front of the 3/4" ratchet.
