Bluepoint wrenches
I've been going through my Dad's old tools, and came across a set of
comination wrenches with the brand "Bluepoint" forged in raised letters. I'm guessing they'd be 1930's-1940's vintage, although there's a chance they were his fathers', 1900-1920 vintage. Anybody know anything about these? Thanks a heap, -Zz "Zz Yzx" rhymes with "physics"; or " Isaacs" if you prefer. http://www.abandonedbutnotforgotten.com/zzyzx_road.htm |

Blue Point was (is) a trade name belonging to Snap-On. Pages discussing the history can be found he http://home.comcast.net/~alloy-artif...ockets-p4.html Kevin Gallimore |
