Gents,
Some of these items in this collection of "stuff" appears to be somewhat misleading. The last two posted items are cleverly suggested to be Canadian Bren Carrier Issue. They are not. Heres what the early issue adjustable and open end wrenchs are supposed to look like.
FYI

I was pretty sure the adjustable wrench was wrong.

I hadn't noticed his Ford marked wrench, but I was pretty sure the wrenches included with both the carriers and the Ford trucks were the Dreadnaught brand. Although I do believe the little wrench is a gray brand.

I will still wager we are going to see some prices on these items that will make our jaws drop, and have us second guessing (with envy) the winners of some of these items.
