Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:506407 | Modified Item: No |
| Brand: Stanley | Country/Region of Manufacture: United States |
| Featured Refinements: Vintage Chisel | Original/Reproduction: Vintage Original |
Model No. 750 is on each chisel. Widths are 1/2", 3/4", and 1". In original box but box is weathered and damaged, see pictures.
This is "new" in the sense that it is in the original box and none were ever used.
History: These were purchased in 1965 by the E.F. McDonald Company to put in a catalog as a premium for a stamp operation. I forget which stamps they ran, maybe Green Stamps or Top Value Stamps. After photographing, this "sample" was sold to m...y father-in-law, who gave it to my brother-in-law, who put it in a box and never used it. My brother-in-law died recently and we are going through his estate.
The number 47-223 appears stuck on the end of the box. I don't know whose number that is, but I doubt it is Stanley's. A Stanley number may be under it.
I see older chisels, unused, at a number of prices, some high. I will begin at $40 and see what happens.
I think the best way to send this is in a padded USPS Flat Rate Envelope. I can put in additional packing on the sides and don't believe the box will be further damaged.
