Snap-on Tools with Bridgers stamp

Post by txremats »

Hi. I'm looking for information on a set of 9/32 drive sockets, ratchet and attachments with a date code of 1934 that I have had for a while. Many of the items in the set contain a marking with a curved logo containing the word "Bridgers". The logo appears to have the chrome plating down into the logo. Some of the smaller items, like sockets, have the letter "B" stamped on them, but 2 of the sockets show part of the Bridgers logo on them as well as the "B". I've attached a couple of photos to show the logo. Also interesting is the black handled socket driver that is marked with both the Snap-on logo as well as the Blue Point logo, and also the full Bridgers logo. Any information on the Bridgers stamp on the tools would be appreciated.
Thanks, Bob

I have not seen that logo on any other tools from that era. The only other logo I have seen from that era is the Ford factory logo. I would think that the logo is an ad from the Bridgers co. but it could be snap on factory, but again I have not seen any others from that era.
Nice set, hard to find from that era, some of the wood handle drivers from that era, do have the BP an SO name.

I could be wrong, but I believe that M-70 ratchet is later than the rest of the set.

most all of these tools should have date codes, including the rat. would date early 30s.
