Snap on info

Ive got a f-6 extension with a 1933 date code. I was just wondering if anybody knows when they started selling 3/8 drive tools? I know they started with 1/2" stuff.

From alloy artifacts

Snap-On first offered 3/8-drive tools as the "Ferret" line in their 1927 catalog. The initial selection included an offset handle, a long Tee-handle, a speeder, an extension, five sockets, and a 1/2- to 3/8-drive adapter plug for the No. 7 ratchet.

Thank you! I looked all over that site and didn't see that.
