Early Tool Kit Wrenches

[Splangy]

Does anybody know the years that the early wrenches changed? I stole this picture to help illustrate:

In addition to those two styles, there's the style on the top without the teq logo that I'm assuming came out later.

Excellent. Which version would 1963 be? Either because of transition year?

The later ones are easy. They have the year stamped on them. I have a few of the rounded ones but none in a tool roll or box to tell when they changed. The microfiche shows the rounded wrenches with a different part number but I don't have a way to cross reference what month they changed to the new part number.

If I had to take a wild guess, July of 1963 is when they changed based solely on the dates the microfiche were updated.

No kidding. I never noticed the date stamp in the later wrenches. Thanks!
