Mac Tools 60th Anniversary 24k Gold Plated Limited Edition Wrench Set 1938 1998 Appraisal

Mac Tools 60th Anniversary 24k Gold Plated Limited Edition Wrench Set (1938-1998)

This is a luxury commemorative tool set produced by Mac Tools to celebrate the brand's diamond jubilee. The set features double-ended wrenches finished in a high-polish 24k gold plating, housed within a custom-fitted mahogany-stained wooden presentation case. Each wrench is deeply etched with commemorative script reading '1938 60th Anniversary 1998 Mac Tools,' accompanied by the official Mac Tools logo. The wooden case includes a dark velvet or foam-lined interior with precise cutouts for each tool. On the left interior, there is cursive branding indicating '24k Gold Plated' and 'Limited Edition.' The right interior lid features a gold-tone commemorative plate detailing the 'Collectors Club' status. Physically, the wrenches appear to be standard professional-grade steel substrate under the plating, featuring both open-end and box-end configurations. The condition shows minor signs of age-related patina and light surface spotting on the gold plating, which is common for decorative items of this era. The wood case shows sharp corners and functional brass hinges, indicating it has been well-preserved. This set was produced specifically in 1998 for members of the Mac Tools Collectors Club, representing a significant piece of automotive industry memorabilia and high-quality craftsmanship intended for display rather than mechanical use.
