The Spring Wrenching News Antique Wrench Auction will be held after the Missouri Valley Wrench Club Spring Meet in York, Nebraska. Majority of the auction consists of the wrenches and other tools from Jim Plantikow of Omaha, Nebraska. Jim started collecting wrenches while still in his teens just missing being a charter member of the Missouri Valley Wrench Club by one meeting. This is the fourth auction we will have had to thin down his massive collection. Jim is selective in the items he collected, concentrating on the rarest and unique adjustable and farm wrenches and fencing tools, etc. His adjustable buggy and wagon wrench collection is top drawer, best we have had to catalog.

To see patent information click on the *PAT* logo in the listings.
Patent information is from the DATAMP - Directory of American Tool & Machinery Patents
or Google Patents if the patent is not listed on DATAMP.

For abbreviations and book references used in our auction catalogs:  Click Here  Note: We are now using Dan Chopiak's "John Deere and Merged Companies Wrenches and Tools" as reference for the John Deere wrenches listed (abbreviated DC and number). Also we have added Ron Geesin's excellent book on English Wrenches (I mean spanners) "The Adjustable Spanner - History, Origins, and Development to1970" to our reference list (RC followed by the page No,)

A WORD ON CONDITION: Because of the character of their use and storage wrench condition can hardly be judged to the same standards as other tools. I try to use the broad categories of condition: Poor, Fair, Good, Good+, Good++, Excellent, and Excellent, like new. I also try to note all faults such as missing parts, cracks, pitting, over cleaning, repairs, etc. Likewise the wrenches in this auction that are in exceptional fine or excellent condition have been so noted, even a common wrench that has survived the years in almost unused condition is a rarity.

Other info:
* Measurements are usually rounded off to the nearest 1/4".
* The markings on the wrenches are in all capital letters.
* a / separates markings on one side of the wrench from the other side.
* If a wrench is misnumbered in a photo the description number will prevail.
* To search for a particular wrench or company (for example IHC, Deere, Coes, adjust etc,) use the find on this page in the edit menu. I have tried to list the company or companies associated with each wrench.

Order of Sale:
Friday April 3: Lots No. 774 to the end of the individual lots and all the choice box lots.
Saturday April 4: All the remaining listed lots starting at Lot No. 1.

The Wrenching News Last Auction Catalog - After 22 auctions (total of $1,057,555.77 sold) this is my last planned wrench auction catalog and I would like to thank all of the Missouri Valley Wrench Club members who have been supportive and encouraging throughout the last fifteen years . Special thanks go to Larry Senff, Dave Doremus and Stan Schultz . Larry has been helping from the first auction, rounding up the flats needed for the box lots and helping set up the auction, Dave has helped with set up and the last few years hauled the wrenches from Kansas to York, Nebraska in his trailer, Stan, beside handling the absentee bids has addressed and mailed the catalogs from York plus proof read the catalog and help look up patents for the catalog descriptions. I would also thank Russ Marshall, Herb Page, Les Williams, Dan Gaier and Don Ervin who helped me over the years with information on some of the rarer wrenches. Several people have always shown up early the day before the auction and helped set out the tables and wrenches. Besides the people mentioned before it seems Glenn Loftdahl , Phil Eberhard, Everett Sheffield, Dan Gaier, Dick Lawton, and several others are always there helping till the finish. Without their help I would be there all night setting up the auction. Special thanks to Dan Chopiak for promoting the auction on his Farm Equipment Facebook page. Ross Ronne and the crew from Green Reality and Auctions have none an outstanding job of calling and clerking the auctions. Bill Winkelman has been there for every auction and actually started with Tom Bailey's first Alfred and Lucille auction in 1994. Kristi Bukaske does an outstanding job of doing the tough job of figuring and sending me the final auction results. Phil & Michelle owners of Docutronics in Wichita have been very helpful and cooperative in the printing of the catalogs and would be a good choice for any printing project. And finally my wife while not exactly ecstatic at all the time involved in doing these auctions has put up with boxes of wrenches stacked all over the house for several months at a time. Many thanks to all the above and anybody I have left out.

When I sold my hardware store in 1998 I knew absolutely nothing about computers, I didn't know the difference between the computer and the monitor, I bought a computer and a printer and a friend set it up, showed me how to start it and left. I spent the rest of the night trying to get on ebay. I decided to start a website on old wrenches (The Wrenching News) and had to learn basic HTML coding. in 2001 I helped Russ Marshall and Tom Bailey put Russ's auction on the web. Later Russ and I did his second catalog and took photos of all the wrenches and put them on line. In 2005 Ed and Judy Friedman asked me and Russ to do their catalog which we did. The next year we did Vern Nail's two and a half day auction. That was enough for Russ as it was taking too much of his time away from work but he continued to help with his vast knowledge of farm wrenches and their variations and in proof reading the catalogs. Russ had been taking the photos so I had to buy a digital camera, a Sony with floppies for storage. I still have a box of floppies with those photos around here someplace. I also had to find a photo editor and learn how to use it. With the help of several ". . . For Dummies" books and a lot of trial and error I have progressed a little.

Working with the consignor's of these auction has been very enjoyable and allowed me to get to know some wonderful people I never would have met. The sellers have trusted me with several thousand dollars of wrenches without even a written contract. Besides the Wrenching News Auctions I worked for several other collectors and auctioneers on their auctions most notably a couple weeks spent in New Mexico helping the Parker Braden Auction Co. with Elmo Rinehart's incredible collection and in Missouri helping auctioneer Glen LaRue with Dick Carter's huge auction. I have had to opportunity to hold more rare wrenches than I could possibly ever own including a six foot Coes Key Wrench and two John Deere TR590 cutouts. Sometimes a tedious but overall a very rewarding experience.
