Vintage Blue Point NDA Hex Driver Set

[zapataco]

I've come across a set of Blue Point NDA hex drivers and can't find anything online. Any help or discussion about them would be appreciated.

I'm thinking that these sets are pretty rare...or the guys that know about them are few and or dead...

I can't find any information either. but given the style, color of the handle, and logo, and model numbering, and the USA. A good probability of production date is close to 1950

I was thinking the dom would be in the '50 too...would love to see a catalog. Thx for the reply.

I find no reference to NDA on the collecting snap on site. What does it stand for?

My guess would be Nut Driver Allen. Their nut drivers were ND- series model numbers, like many mfgrs, and their hex (or "Allen") keys or wrenches were AW- series, like many mfgrs. So, process of derivation, if they were consistent, NDA would be Nut Driver Allen (type). But that is just hunching.

That's great info...more than I've found so far. Now I'm thinking that there are very few full sets in existence.
I have found that the underlined logo was changed in the late '70s...?
It may have been a special set as some lettering is gold. I made a see-thru case as the color goes from amber to a rich red
depending on the light source.
