Great tool! I’d display it proudly!

When men were men and knew things...

I was entrusted with this rare kit first advertised in the 1959 Lyman #41 annual catalog. We had it on display at the last HHC in TN. It has been used mostly as a teaching device. On occasion I do actually have a working set of these tools I use for enjoyment. There is a 1958 magazine add that illustrated it for sale. The kit is quite complete with fantastic instructions that make sense and are devoid of language restricted and directed by fear of litigation. Common sense was actually that.

I thought it would be a timely thing to consider here, some (65) years later. How far have we come?!
