Vintage Automotive Ignition Wrench and Socket Tool Set in Metal Case

This is a vintage automotive ignition wrench or points tool set, housed within its original metal tin case. The case measures approximately 8-10 inches in length and 4-5 inches in width, made of steel with a dark, possibly blued or painted, finish that has significantly rusted and stained over time, consistent with age and prolonged storage in a workshop environment. The exterior shows heavy surface corrosion, pitting, and discoloration, indicating advanced patina. The interior of the lid features a paper label or decal, now yellowed, brittle, and partially torn, which lists various automotive components (e.g., 'Breaker points screws', 'Quill and Condenser screws', 'Condenser screw') along with corresponding sizes or quantities. This label serves as an inventory guide for the tools once contained within. The set includes a variety of open 'L' shaped ignition wrenches (visible as the elongated, flat tools), a pair of small needle-nose pliers, and a series of approximately 10-12 sockets of varying sizes, ranging from small to medium, arranged in cut-outs along the top edge of the lower tray. Also present are extension bars or handles for the sockets, and what appears to be a breaker bar adapter. The tools themselves, predominantly made of steel, exhibit a dull, aged patina, with some visible surface rust and grease residue, but appear largely intact. The craftsmanship suggests industrial production, with stamped metal components. Based on the style of the tools and the visible text on the internal label, this set likely dates from the mid-20th century, possibly 1930s-1950s, a period when such specialized automotive tool kits were common for vehicle maintenance. The overall condition is fair to poor, due to the heavy corrosion on the case and the general wear on the tools, but its completeness within the original case adds to its historical and collectible value.
