They look like early Ford wrenches. Open end for spark plugs and the hex for head nuts. Every Ford came with one in the tool kit.

Left one is Model T plug and head, same basic wrench with only minor variations used for all of them. Right one is later...basic style was used from 1928 into early 1940, 11/16 head nut, different spark plug sizes changing in 1933 and 1937. My flying guess from eyeballing plug opening is '33-7, most of those have the part number prefix "40".
40-17????.

Yep, I have the same wrenches along with a few other Ford wrenches. They seem to be the least valuable among the car manufacturer marked tools probably due to the huge numbers of them produced. They should have the FORD script on them unless someone ground it off many years ago. I spend half my time at the flea markets scrounging through the 50 cent buckets of rusty tools looking for manufacturer marked tools and railroad marked stuff. If I had to pick a favirote it's my "Indian" wrench I paid 25 cents for.
