Looks like probably a nice condition and complete metric set, and it could be useful too.. I have some like that i carry in my Land Rover Defenders as on board kits. More common here than in Idaho I expect! J.FYI:

Thank you. 9 pounds shipping seem a lot for one wrench, but I know the cost has gone up a lot in the last few years. The wrench looks in good shape I may order it.That must have been a nice surprise, Happy Birthday!
I will have a look see if I have any extras in that size. It's not a difficult size to find here, but of course there's the shipping cost.
Currently 1 for sale on e bay UK, from a reputable seller I have dealt with.

I do have an extra 13-15mm in my box which would go well with your set. If you want to hold off ordering that expensive one from e bay I could check cheapest postage cost next week when I have to go to the Post Office with some other stuff anyway. What approximate location are you?
That would be great. I'm in Ohio, zip code 43537. Just let me know hao you would like to handle the money.
It's either longer nails or another board!
I came across this little spanner marked AMC which I think is a Superslim as it's marked TW on the reverse side, might have been part of a motorcycle? toolkit.
You have a nice collection going there Don, especially the Jaguar toolkit ones. The short 1/4 Whitworh is battery terminal nut size, very useful. Some of the open ends especially the King **** have those great fat wide heads, so difficult to get in to a tight spot. Like the nuts on the Land Rover steering lock stop setscrews, the only thing that can turn them is a Snap On!On Thursday I took a couple pictures of my British wrenches.
Today while I was going through another box I found three more.

Thanks for posting those, I will compare them to the pages from 1965. They're in post no. 17 upthread, and were kindly supplied by the Ken Hawley collection. https://www.hawleytoolcollection.com/Still have some TW, will post them on here soon.
1968 catalogue. Probably in another thread.
I do have a few ones like that, they came in a Marshall tractor tool kit in the 1980's
This one is a bit different as it lives up to its name. I assume that it was also made by T Williams. There is no makers name or TM and only has "MADE IN ENGLAND" on the other side.
