A PF70A ratchet. 3/8 drive. Date code 1936. As a P stamped in front of the F. (there are other models like this also). The Only difference is the detent ball has been replaced with a pin. Has the large paw used in the later F70A. It is not listed in any cat, including the 38 supplemental.

The date stamp on the two ratchets is not facing the same orientation. Is that common with earlier stuff?
