Mantis,

The Herter's Model 6 Vise was described as a heavy duty vise which was "so popular before World War II." The four compartment bottle/hook/material tray was optional. In 1959, the vise sold for $4.50 without the tray or $5.00 with the tray. Shipping weight was FIVE pounds. Old George Herter built those things to last. 8T
