Reverse
reads
: "
Herbrand
Corp.
"
Herbrand
was
established
in
Fremont
,
Ohio
in
1881
Charles
Thompson
.
Patent
records
suggest
that
Jacob
Herbrand
of
Fremont
,
Ohio
may
have been
one
of the
company's
founders
. The
company
began
as a
maker
of
vehicle
springs
and
suspension
systems
, as a
number
of
such
patents
were
assigned
to the
company
between
1881
and
1900
. In
1919
, "
Van-Chrome
" was
used
as a
trademark
for
Herbrand
alloy
steel
tools
,
which
was a
popular
form
of
toolmaking
at this
time
. As the
popularity
of the
automobile
emerged
in the
early
20th
century
,
Herbrand
expanded
production
of
drop-forged
tools
for
automobile
tool
kits
to
high-volume
retailers
such
as
Western
Auto
Supply
and
Montgomery
Ward
. By the
1930s
, the
shift
of
focus
to the
higher
end
professional
market
broadened
the
Herbrand
tool
line
as
it
included
a
larger
range
of
automotive
service
tools
,
including
drive
tools
,
sockets
, and
gear
pullers
.
Throughout
the
1940’s
,
Herbrand
continued
as a
full-service
independent
tool
company
.
