Antique Russell Jennings Auger Brace Bits - rare owners marked:
$60.10

A really clean and unusually marked collection of wood auger bits for the brace.
There are a total of 14 graduated bits included and a counter sink. For collectors, the really interesting note here is that 9 of the Russel Jennings bits as well as the little counter sink are all stamped with the original owners name...one G.F. Hadley. He was apparently an early carpenter/woodworker living in Wearre, NH. I acquired his tool chest at an sale many years ago and these I found wrapped in cloth at the bottom of that chest.Of the 14 auger bits included,12 are marked Russell Jennings either on the shank or somewhat faintly on the tapered square tangs. In order to offer this as a complete graduated set I have added the following... No 5 size (5/16\") which is marked Wm Ridgeway, Sheffield.and the No 12 size (12/16\") which is marked Wrights Jennings, U.S.A.
All of the bits are in excellent clean condition with good threads. Most would benefit from a proper sharpening with a safe edge purpose specific file (sold by Lee Valley).
All 14 bits and the little counter sink bit are offered at sale as one lot with the lowest allowable starting offer and absolutely no hidden reserve whatever. Please do ask any additional questions and check the pictures carefully to further verify condition etc.
