Help Narrowing down year of Tool Box

Post by Portager »

Hello Everyone,

I recently picked up this set at a garage sale. I'm planning on cleaning it up, but pretty much using the tool box as is.

I was hoping that someone would have some insight into how old it is. Neither the top nor the bottom box have any stamps that I could find with serial numbers and I haven't been able to find the bottom cabinet in the catalogues.

Thanks for your help! Any advice is appreciated.

Went through the catalogues again and I think I identified the roll cab.
Best guess is that it is a 1965 KRC-800.
Looks like the drawers have been removed and repositioned which threw me in the logo placement.

I believe the top is a KRC-701 again 1965
Not quite sure why I can't find a date stamp, but that year is best guess for now.
