PEACE'S UNIVERSAL VISE
Anyone else have any more information?
There was a tool maker from about that time named Harvey Peace but he seems to have only made saws - good saws.

What is the history of American, American Scale and Red Seal, are they one company? I am going thru FMC's catalog pages and see American as a vise manufacturer and always assumed this is American Scale. Maybe I should have a MFR American seperate from American Scale. Thanks in advance.

Mike, it allows you to clamp on angled pieces. This Lewis model has the pin in the back of the swivel jaw.
Some pics of the Athol Machinery No 60 Amateur clamp-on vise. Catalog cut (p. 15) previously posted by @Fierljeppen:

As there has been put upon the market a Vise in imitation of Parker's genuine, the above list of numbers and corresponding length of jaws will be furnished, but they do not have the Wrought Iron Strengthened or any of Parker's patented improvements. These Vises are all painted green, to distinguish them from Parker's regular Vises. A full line of above kept in stock.

Precision-Bilt Streamliner utility vise. Listed in spreadsheet but without any photo link or specifications.
@va.grouseman has it in two sizes.
www.garagejournal.com
According to a thread on OWWM, Precision-Bilt was the top of Spiegel's three lines, and the vise may have been made by Power King.
Didn't find any vises in Spiegel catalogs on-line. Only drill press vises in Power King catalogs at vintagemachinery.org.
Morgan had "Steamliners" utility vises but the side profile is not the same:

I couldn't find any company information, but I did notice va.grouseman has -3- of them. He has the most eclectic vise collection I've ever seen. That's a very stylish vise, anyone know who mfg. them? That’s no lie. He’s got some huge 8in vises down to a small Pittsburgh double swivel...

skmbabon: There were a few 'streamliners' similar (identical) to Morgan's vise of that name. I have this Jordan #4 Special and I know of at least one other. That Precision-Bilt Streamliner is too cool!
akasrick: Thanks for the additional information about the 'Greens'. There were some shenanigans in those days.

Those streamliners look kind of like a Littlestown no. 191
