Vintage Antique Pat July 9, 1876 Rare Saw Set Tool
Patent Number 66,484S Date: Jul. 9, 1867 Patent was awarded to "John Geer"This tool was found literally encapsulated in somewhat hardened oily sawdust. Sometime in the past it had dropped between the floorboards of what was a work shed, looks like it landed in sawdust then got covered over in it. The old building that was about ready to fall down located on a farm in the Catskill area of New York, during demolition (it was in a dangerous condition) it was found.All I did to it was clean the "gunk" (that's a technical term) off with compressed air and a stiff nylon brush then because the thumbscrews did not turn easily although they moved I spritzed it with some Gibbs Brand product.One of the photos shows a bit of orange oxide dust in spots (rust) on it, I included that pic so you could see what it looked like before I applied the Gibbs.Everything moves as it should, thumb screws have full range of movement. The jaws work fine and the spring even returns the handles to the open position when you loosen your grip.
I looked, I couldn't find another one of these listed anywhere. As such I used the word "Rare"
This would make an interesting addition to any collection!

I am downsizing so things will be priced to sell! Will be listing parts, hardware, HVAC, electrical, tools, garage items, man cave, steampunk, old vintage bits and pieces, swap meet stuff.....I will combine shipping. Fastest way and to ensure you get the items is to just buy them. I will see they were bought by the same person and I will refund any overages in shipping, usually the same day if not by the next. You can also send me a message to confirm. Look at my response, I have done this many times and I am not going to ruin my rating for a one time grab of a few shipping dollars.
I use recycled shipping materials when feasible and I reserve the right to switch shippers to enhance service as I have seen as much as 6 days difference in est delivery dates. If this is an issue, you MUST let me know when you buy the item(s) as there is little I can do after they are on their way.
Thank you for looking.Stocking Code: A3 Orange
