I take his word its a Bonney, I also have a Ford wrench with the Bonney shield, it was not a contract tool.

It's been a few years but I am not remembering who used a B in a oval logo.

Thanks for that Don.
I haven't messed with old iron hands on for a few years.
Been busy with other phases of life

Went digging in storage for other things and pulled out my 1914ish T tool roll.

I kind of forgot how poor quality those contract tools were. Despite being oiled going into storage the adjustable has started rusting again. The A pliers joint got stiff again and this is a dry, ambient temperature area.
The Bonney and WW band wrenches didn't rust at all. Not aimed at the farmer that owned the 2nd hand car. Probably quite expensive compared.
Everything got recoated again as I don't use this kit. Probably never will.

My faked tire irons made from VW bug torsion spring did much better with no rust at all.
I did use those mounting a wheelbarrow tire.
I may have improved upon Henry's contract tools. Using 1934 technology in metals.
