GB Patent: 266,043 https://www.datamp.org/patents/displayPatent.php?id=85658&pn=266,043 Improvements in or relating to nut and pipe wrenches Patentee: Arthur James Thurley - London GB Granted:1927-02-27
Manufactured by THURLEY GRIP-ALL Co. - London GB

US Patent: 1,619,538 https://www.datamp.org/patents/displayPatent.php?id=85814&pn=1,619,538 Tire-repair tool Patentee: Ewald F. Pawsat - Maysville KY Granted:1927-03-01
Assigned to Wald Mfg. Co. - Maysville KY

The tool stretches and inserts a "rubber band" type plug into a puncture hole in pneumatic "tubeless" tires. The design in this patent differs from a known example of the WALD BEATS-ALL Tire Repair Tool. That example matches the design shown in a January 1921 ad, when WALD was located in Sheboygan, WI, and a similar WALD REPAIR TOOL design is shown in 1912 Sears, Roebuck & Co. Catalog No. 124.
