Description:

The wrench has a swiveling alligator type jaw, and a secondary handle sliding through a hole in the main handle at right angles. Examples marked "WOLVERINE PAT. JUNE-1-09" probably reflect sales by WOLVERINE BRASS WORKS. Their 1914 catalog lists three sizes -- regular and "long jaw" 6 inch, and 8 inch.
