Vintage Tools: World War Two Purves Manufacturing Co. 1944 Tool Chest | RailRoad Modeling

Thank you for posting the pictures Fred. I found the tool chest back in the early 90s and paid $30.00 for it. Too bad that it wasn’t complete and I wish the tray hadn’t been broken. Oh well, for an item that was around 50 years old when I found it, I can’t complain too much. It was a much welcome addition to my collection. :slightly_smiling_face:
