Bear sold these Saftey Service workbenches for about 5 years starting in 1949.
Were they built by Sioux?
I have only seen three examples of this cabinet alive today, and none of them have an intact Sioux ID plate.
Even though I have never found ads mentioning a manufacturing company and the handles are a different shape than the earlier Sioux Valve service benches, I still fully believe these benches were built by Sioux Tools.
Early Style- present on all Sioux Valve Service Cabinets
