nice little jack

Very nice old jack find!! (One more that didn't get shipped to China! )

I've got one similar to that, no dates on it. Gemco company stamped on it. Those babies are dangerous at best.

I'd hate being stuck with a flat tire, on the shoulder using one of these contraptions.

The walker is a nice jack. never seen one like Gazoo has. . looks like it would make a better bottle caper then a jack

I tried researching these jacks, it's the only one I've ever seen like it. I stumbled on these while researching, www.urbanremainschicago.com/shop/miscellany/old-service-station-artifacts/matching-set-of-original-early-20th-century-functional-cast-iron-reliable-freestanding-automotive-one-stroke-tire-jacks-with-nicely-aged-patina.html.

They were called "One Stroke", approx. vintage,1910-1920.

My buddy found an old jack in a scrap pile... I'll see if I can grab a pic of it. Its pretty neat, and I've never seen one like it...

My Dad had an old railroad jack years ago. He found in the barn at the old homestead. It was neat because the body was aluminum, all the other I have seen were cast iron.
Unfortunately he got rid of it when they sold there other house or I would have grabbed it.
