NOS NIB North Brothers \"Yankee\" No. 555 Ratcheting Breast Drill,100+ years old For Sale

NORTH BROS. MFG \"Yankee\" No. 555 Ratcheting Breast Drill NOS w/box
New Old Stock, New in Box (box needs help)
super nice This piece came to me partially disassembled in the box. I noticed it was easy to completely disassemble it, so I did for this \"photo op\".Box top and bottom has joint separation but basically complete and restorable.
One needs some paper tape and patience.This tool is a rare and amazing example of the ingenious inventiveness of George O. Leopold and NORTH BROS. MFG, early c20th.Great info available at \"georgesbasement\" just google it.This museum piece is nearly perfect --- I believe there is a small chip in the wood handle See 8th photo.... likely from bouncing in the box over the past 100 years.
