I have been focusly collecting Plomb for about 4 years now. Like many I was hooked by the design of the pebble patterns which slowly creeped over to other Plomb eras and designs. As many of you know I have been aggressively been trying to complete my DOEs pebbles to complete the pebble wrench grand slam as Stormking did. While looking for the last wrenches I had become bored so started filling other wrench and socket sets by trading with other members here while shaking every bush and turning over every stone I can think of. Some presistance paid off today. I had the amazing opportunity to purchase a large Plomb collection from someone I met at a swap meet a few years back. With this purchase it put me over the 1,100 mark with around 600 being unique (not dupes).
Well here is a couple pics of the collection. Starting off 5 Plomb tool boards including a DOE wrench, Screwdrivers, Pliers, Adjustable and Pipe wrenches, and lastly a dual marked 1/2" drive board. I also had to buy most of the tools that were on the boards. Most will be dupes but some are new to me.
In some of the other tools including 2 leatherettes with a mostly full set of cold chisels and tappered punches. My first hammer and some larger pipe wrenches and a 12" adjustable to finish out my adjustables.
I feel hitting this mile stone is more of a checkpoint vs a finish line and I am still pushing to have one of the most diverse collections around. All while learning new history almost weekly about his amazing company.
As many of us collectors can say, most of the fun is in the hunt.
