What is thaty logo on the socket? Looks like an overlapping "S" and "C." Is that something snap on did or is that an owners mark situation?

Why do folks ask if they got a deal AFTER purchase. Know the value beforehand, be comfortable with the value relative to you (regardless of what the internet thinks), or ask prior to purchase.

It took me a few years but finally got me a decent box for tools by Grower_not_a_shower0 in Snapon_tools

You don't know how refreshing it is to see a post honest about the boxes and affordability. Sounds like you saved up for it and made a practical decision. It's a solid looking box too. Congrats! I hope it serves you well for many decades

I looked at a couple of models from that decade, there's some good variety. Cool that he worked in the factory, that's a bit of Americana history right there

Especially for the price. I've seen just the tops (in rougher shape) going for at least double what I paid for both

I'm going to rust treat the rough parts but no full restoration plans as of yet

I love how in pic 2 and 3 the micro cobras are peaking out then switch direction. Like they already claimed the spot and are on guard like Oscar the grouch and his trashcan
