having trouble uploading pics. I believe these tools predate serial numbers. I have a lot of symbols im dealing with. Ive heard snap on symbolized there tools early on till 1927 when they started punching 7,8,9,0. on them. I think I have a 8. standing for 1928. Anyone familiar with there early symbols?

Virtually everyone, including me sometimes has difficulty uploading photos. Frank, there has to be a simpler way to get a few photo included with a comment.

Frank did a write up on how to post pics in the News and Announcements section which seems to work for me.
