Plomb Goodness

[hguerrero]

Thought you Plomb collectors would enjoy seeing this.
Bought this Plomb set today. Kinda cool. Never seen one before.
Probably end up in classifieds at some point. I'd like to keep it awhile and admire it everytime i open the drawer on the tool chest.

That's really nice.

That's a nice set!

I like it! That would look good in the top drawer of my Plomb Toolmobile. I've been bitten by the vintage tool bug since acquiring a few of my grandfathers tools (including the toolmobile). Included was a 3/8 proto Los Angeles set but the 1/4 inch set with box would match all that nicely. Sheesh, you need to stop putting ideas in my head!

A member here recently found one of those sets and paid $3. Why don't I take it off your hands for $3 since that is the current market rate

In that case I'll give you $4!

I feel sorry for that little set being alone without its support group. I'm sure it would feel much safer on my shelf next to its kin

 

[montanafordman]

Oh man... that is a nice looking box!

You cheap badtards. Offer the man at least twice the going rate.

Is $6 really going to break you

Nice little set BTW

..."I will up the bid to 5.00"...
Gettin' to be like Ebay around here. All you crazy speculators runnin' everything out of sight...
That is a beautiful little set.

I'd say with the more rounded handle on the ratchet as well as the non-standard design on the spinner handle with the female broaching on the end it's very close to before the proto transition.

Are any of the sockets dual marked? What name is marked on the spinner handle?

Great find btw!

 

[Filson]

Damn nice stuff!!!

Rusty - Any story behind that box you got?

 

[B17E1943]

Sweet!

I need one of those 1/4" boxes.

 

[W0rLDWaR4]

Nice vintage stuff there, especially Rusty's. That 1/4 is nice too Guerrero!!
