Vintage Craftsman Ratchet

[DTB]

Found this old Craftsman ratchet and socket set. Can somebody tell me the approx. age of this ratchet? Appears to be a 24 tooth gear design.

Well, that's the old Plomb made version for starters. Nice find.

Thanks. I kind of thought it may of been of the Proto/Plomb design because of the 24 tooth gear and the slim head thickness.

Pretty cool! Love the looks of it, guessing it's tough as nails too.
