Manufactured by E. EDELMANN & Co. - Chicago IL

Light weight "ball pein" hammer with multiple size nested screwdrivers stored in the handle. Corresponds to British patent GB-142,008 and U.S. Design patent D54,162. Produced as Edelmann's "HAN-D" hammer. The arrangement of the screwdrivers resembles Edelmann's earlier 4-in-1 screwdriver (where the two smallest sizes are "loose" inside the next larger size), rather than the "Three--in-One," which used an alternative end cap whereby all three screwdrivers were firmly held by the end cap.

US Patent: D54,162 https://www.datamp.org/patents/displayPatent.php?id=50176&pn=D54,162 Hammer Patentee: Erich Edelmann - Chicago IL Granted:1919-11-11
Manufactured by E. EDELMANN & Co. - Chicago IL

Ball-pein hammer with a knurled metal handle; the design seems to show parting lines, so the design may reflect a hammer with nested screwdrivers in the handle. Edelmann received British patent GB-142,008 and Canadian patent CA-216,934 for a hammer with nested screwdrivers stored within its hollow handle. Appears as the HAN-D hammer in a 1920 Edelmann ad. The internal screwdriver arrangement resembles Edelmann's 4-in-1 screwdriver which had been in production for most of the prior decade.
