Wilton bullet vise NO. 3

[orchidlane]

Hello all, I just picked up a Wilton bullet vise NO. 3 Does anyone know about what year, the side does not show a year but it was made in Chicago with the number NO.3 casted on the side, I have a 1956 Wilton vise catalog but I dont see any vises with the side markings NO.3 or any other number or size on them, is this before 1956 or after ? its a beauty to add to my collection.. here's a few pictures. thanks

Remove the dynamic jaw all the way and you should find a date on the bottom of the slide. That date is the warranty date so it was made a year or so earlier, or was it three years. It is close any way.

It looks a bit of a dog in that last photo. Nice vice. Looks to be in reasonably good condition.

Looks familiar Glad you got it fast, I couldn't find a date on it.
