Missouri Valley Wrench Club Annual Meeting Commemorative Wrenches (lots 716 thru 728)

From 2011 to 2020 Everett Sheffield from Somers, Mont. designed and cast scale models of different antique wrenches. Each year (except 2016 when Everett was having health issues) he made 100 wrenches and donated them to the Missouri Valley Wrench Club. One was given to each person who registered for the annual spring meeting. If any were left they were available for sale to wrench club members and they very quickly sold out. Sadly there won't be any more as Everett passed away Jan 5, 2024. Only a very few of these wrenches have been sold in the secondary market.

In 2022, 2023 and 2024 Jr. Yoder of Goshen, Indiana made miniatures H. D. Smith wrenches (his collecting specialty) for the MVWC Fall Meets.

Also in 2024 Stan Schulz designed a cutout wrench for the MVWC Spring Meet.
