I love the mental picture of someone sitting at a desk all day typing these, and the mailing labels.
Good addition.............. The " good old days", when a Dollar was worth a Dollar.
When the Federal Reserve prints money.......... they devalue the Dollar. Our dollar is
probably worth about $.10 today.
Phil where'd you find that invoice? Stuffed in a parts machine? Very interesting. No more #1 reflex gears!

I was thinking the exact same thing. Probably lighting one Camel cigarette with the last.

You can still buy Chapman ratchet sets just like the one on the invoice! Great quality made-in-USA tool sets.
The A-1316 set is still sold by them.

So $7 in 1959, now $28 and "Made in the USA". I'll buy one just for that!

Got it. Really nice set. Perfect for removing upper arch plastics on my Bally SS games while installed. I'm sure I'll find other uses.
