Turtleback
Serial Numbers
The serial number is stamped on the top edge of the
outer jaw in the middle. So far, all Type T1's have been 2 to 4 digits, Type T2's have been 3 or 4 digits and
Type T3's have been 5 digits. On some, the inner jaw is stamped Emmert Mfg
Co. Waynesboro PA while others have another set of numbers. You may have to use mineral spirits to uncover it. A paper rubbing
is useful if a camera is not available.
If you have a Turtleback, please check to see if you
have a serial number. If you do, please send me a photo or rubbing.

Jeff Noel submitted this
Type T1 with serial
number 1317. Jeff says "I run across your site on a search on this
vise. Any how I inherited this vise and the bench it was attached to.
My Great Great Grandfather was a cabinet maker. To the best of my
understanding. I included a rub, it appears to be 1317."
