Description: |
| Information taken from Clifford D. Fales' database.
Manufactured in 2 sizes: No. 1 = 15.5"-26.5" / No. 2 = 12.5"-21". Advertised as "REID'S LIGHTNING BRACE".
Marked, "H. REID / PHILA. PA / PAT. DEC. 12, 1882"
The patent specification describes the invention as "designed for boring and screw driving", but it appears that it was only ever sold as a screwdriver. |
