Vintage Cast Iron J.A. SEXAUER WRENCH Slim Open Ended!

Vintage Cast Iron J.A. SEXAUER WRENCH Slim Open Ended! - eBay (item 310014983374 end time Jan-21-08 18:39:48 PST)

This vintage cast iron wrench is embossed on the handle with the maker, "J. A. Sexauer Mfg Co" and "U.S.A. And Canada." There's a small hallmark that I can't make out. I keep thinking it looks like the Phantom's Skull Ring, but that's likely just me. Being married to a cartoonist can warp a person.

It's an open-ended wrench that's very thin in profile, measuring only 5/16" thick at the jaws and 1/2" thick at the handle. The finish has patina and one chip. The white mark you see in the photo later scratched off.

The openings measure 2 5/8" and 1 7/8" wide. Or 66 mm and 48 mm.
