Hello,
hope someone can help me ID some of these relics.
Got all of this on the table plus a couple other items for $9.00
Hay rack items ,local farm equipment auction on Sat.
The adjustable pliers kind of thing has a anvil logo on jaw with a vertical line above it.
I believe the item with the wooden handle is an old spray nozzle, Brass and wood construction.
Large end is stamped.Meyers & Bro. Co.
Has a 3/4" Thread connection for hose and wood handle twists the valve.....Any thoughts?
A few Ford wrenches A large ratchet stamped Chicago manufacturing and distributing. Square and hex stamped sockets.
Trying to figure out what the S shaped wrench logo is...Looks like a C with an H in middle...Any help
Thanks

The S wrench is International Harvester Co. That screams 1915 to the early 1940's but I cannot narrow it down to an fixed date or machine.

Looks like you found the leavings of a well set 1920's or 30's farm shop. Rare to find so many tools about the same age all in one shot.

Thanks for the info.
the farm was quite old.
The gentleman who owned it was passionate about keeping his equipment well maintained.
All equipment was kept indoors.
Found a few Ford adjustable wrenches in the pile just now.

The pliers looking tool is a pair of pipe tongs. They were used before the invention of the Stillson pattern pipe wrench

tongs almost look to have verona/woodings logo. the meyers thing is what left of a portable fruit tree sprayer rig. the ih wrench is very common to tractor and engine tool kits. big ratchet is a silo wrench 4 building farm silos.
