This year's sale consists of wrenches from the collections of Don Ervin of Surrey, Maine and Robert Matz of Cozad, Nebraska. Bob told me he had been interested in old tools since he was a young boy and bought his first wrench in 1938 (a Lawson pipe wrench that is included in this auction) It wasn't till he retired and sold his GMC truck dealership that he started collecting seriously. Besides wrenches he had collections of wood working tools, machinists tools, typewriters, Western books and memorabilia, rubber tire ashtrays, etc., etc.

Don started to thin down his vast and diverse collection with last years sale as he is now specializing in collecting only early patented wrenches. His agricultural cutout lettering type wrenches that are listed on this auction is the best collection ever offered at public auction. The John Deere T590 cutout is by far the most sought after wrench among farm wrench and John Deere collectors and has never been offered at a cataloged wrench auction before.

The combination of these two collections provides a wide selection of wrenches in all the wrench collecting categories and in all degrees of rarity and price range.

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. So rather than using a grading scale I have tried 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 as survived the years in almost unused condition is a rarity. This leaves the wrenches listed with no mention of condition which covers all those that are in good to good plus collectible condition and with no major flaws.

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.
* All farm type wrenches are cast malleable iron unless noted otherwise.
- To search for a particular wrench or company (for example IHC, Deere, Coes, adj, 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 17: We will sell the last 200 or so of the listed lots and as many of the choice box lots as time allows.
Saturday April 18: All the listed lots starting at Lot No. 1. Any unlisted box lots that weren't sold on Friday afternoon will be sold on Saturday after the last listed lots are sold. The TR590 John Deere cutout should sell about 11:30.

Wrenches With Cutout Letters

This is undoubtedly the best selection of cutout wrenches ever offered for sale at a public auction. Headed by the John Deere TR590 this section has forty-four wrenches with cutout letters. Ten of them would probably be the featured wrench at most wrench auctions.

0330. DEERE A196A - - 8" CUTOUT with part number running up along side of square box. Good Plus with some very light pitting. (R1-131, D162)

0331. DEERE A196A - - 8" CUTOUT with part number running down along side of square box. Some spots of pitting, jaw chip and small casting flaw. (not in Rathbone, D161)

0332. JOHN DEERE (in CUTOUT letters) TR590 - - 18". If there is a "Holy Grail" of antique wrenches the TR590 is it. I would like to thank Don Ervin for giving me the once in a lift time opportunity to list it on this auction. As far as I can determine this is the first time one has been sold on a well advertised live auction.

The TR590 wrench came with the experimental John Deere Dain All-Wheel Drive four cylinder, three wheel tractor that John Deere (under the supervision of Joseph Dain Jr.) made in 1919. According to researchers only 100 were made and sold mostly in the Dakota's. The project was abandoned when Deere & Company acquired the Waterloo Boy tractor and produced the Model D Tractors instead. Purportedly most of Dain's tractor were recalled and destroyed.

Sold with the wrench will be the case custom built for it along with a reprint of the Instruction Book and Repair list for the tractor, a picture of the one known complete tractor, a miniature key chain replica of the wrench and several other pieces of literature.

Condition is Good++ with some light pitting mostly on one end on the reverse side, good strong cast on the part numbers, space between the crossbars on the second "E" was not cast cleanly. Giving it a 10 for rarity, 10 for desirability and a 8 for condition equals 28 out of a possible 30. If you don't plan on actually bidding on this wrench I would recommend attending the auction so you can tell your grandkids you once saw one sell back in ought nine at York, Nebraska. Last known private sale - $20,000. (R135, D536)    Front Side    Back Side    In Case

0333. DEERE A196 - - 8" RARE two hammer head variant with part number right side, top of open end. This hard to find Deere CUTOUT wrench has some pitting, cutout letters are crisp and clear. (D159, R2-75)

0334. Deere / A196 - 8" with part number on the right above the open end. Painted green, tiny crack on corner of open end jaw. (R131, D157)

330 thru 334

0335. C & J (unknown origin) - - 7.25" CUTOUT. One of the rarest of all the cutouts. Only a couple others known to exist and they are slightly different (they are marked with the part No. "5", this one isn't, see Rathbone-2 page 48). Condition is outstanding with clean, sharp letters and most of the original black Japanned finish still intact. Don bought this one at the Wrenching News Friedman auction at York, Nebraska, April 2006. Hammer price was $3000.00.

0336. BRADLEY'S WONDER D99 (David Bradley Mfg, Bradley, ILL ) - - 14.5" with CUTOUT letters, two square box variant. Large, rare cutout with striking graphics. Always at the top of cutout wrench collector's wanted lists. Last one known to sell brought $2200 at the Earl Varney auction Sept. 2008 at Jewel, Kansas. Good++ with just a hint of surface pitting. (R1-126)

0337. JOHN BULL - - 11.25" with CUTOUT letters and a small hammer poll. This is the only known cutout wrench from the United Kingdom and seldom comes up for sale either here or in England. First one we have had the opportunity to sell. Wrench would grade Excellent except that it has been over cleaned (at least for my taste). (R269, no info as to use or source)

0338. W PLOW CO 2 (Wilkinson Plow Co. Toronto, Ontario, Canada) - - 6.25" Planet Jr. type with CUTOUT letters. Here's another one we have never listed before. I remember driving to Lexington, Illinois in the summer of 1998 to watch one of these sell for $2350 which at the time was a record for a farm wrench sold at auction. Rare little wrench in Excellent condition.

0339. GALE G8 (Gale Mfg. Co. Albion, Michigan) - - 5.75". Rare little CUTOUT wrench that hardly ever shows up. We have never owned or sold one before. Excellent condition. (R1-193)

0343. CASADAY (South Bend Chilled Plow C0.) - - 11.5" CUTOUT. One of the most desirable, largest, and most impressive looking of all the cutout wrenches. At Al Schulz's first auction in October of 1996 several of the long time wrench collectors came close to cardiac arrest when his cutout Casaday became the first $1000 wrench. The new owner then left to drive back to Pennsylvania, arriving in time for the birth of his son. Has some pitting and has been lacquered which enhances the pitting.(R1-429)

0344. Buffalo Pitts H O CO NY. - 10"CUTOUT. some pitting. (R68TR)

0350. COMET 121C (Peter Hamilton Mfg. Co., Ontario, Canada) - 7" CUTOUT. Severely pitted, marked with part numbers but not all numbers are readable. (R111)

342 thru 350

0351. PLANET JR. 312 - - 12" with CUTOUT letters. Longest of the Planet Jr. wrenches and one of the rarest with only a few know in collections. A 312 made front page news when it was hammered down for $1800 at the Jin Henry auction, York, Neb, April of 1999. Wrench has been painted but doesn't show any pitting or serious flaws under the paint. (R1-380)

0352. PLANET JR. / H4 U.S.A - - 8" with double hammer polls (solid letter variant not a cutout.). Some edge dings. (R380)

0353. PLANET JR. - - 8" with double hammer polls and CUTOUT letters but with grind marks. Probably a H4 solid version with the letters ground out.
