Very Nice group of nice jacks,,I really like the Miller Bros. with the sheepsfoot main.
Knives like them old jacks arent just falling out of the sky,,it takes along time to find them in such good shape.

From what I've found out following pocket knives on ebay, the Anton Wingen, Jr. Othello knives are pretty rare. Here are three that I've picked off the Bay:

Time to show great grand-dad's old hobo off again I guess.
How about a STACY No 4 Newgate St ( which is in London )
The Stacy has some awesome snap!
Chris Wolf
This one is a PITA to open as it has no nail nick and the spring is stout enough to hold a mid size truck!

Nice one JR
Wullie, I am with Tom as usual. I love that hobo. It is my favorite knife ever posted on here at AAPK.
Here is a close to 100 year old Shumate Knife Co. knife. Its probably my favorite knife I own.

Some that I have had; that I like very much. A couple of old whittlers; stag Ralph Brown San Francisco; early 1900s and early pearl Torrey.
Pearl Torrey; with engraved bolsters and a Case Tested 9165; cracked ice flat blade. MM did an excellent job cleaning these two.

I posted one picture of this brand before, but feel they deserve recognition agian.
TUNA VALLEY CUTLERY
quite possibly the rarest of all CASE related stampings.
I only own one of these, not sure who owns the other two.
I have heard of a couple others out there in collector land but never seen them.
Once saw a well used version.
ENJOY

Last year I did an article for Knife World on these and the ones Perry Miller reintroduced made by GEC
