This is a nice clean wood handle slot bit ratchet screwdriver marked "YANKEE NO. 2H HANDY MAN MADE IN U.S.A.". It was made by North Brothers Mfg. Co. in the 1930-40's era. This one has the black painted handle with most of the paint intact, with a few dings on the rounded handle end noted. The ratchet works in clockwise and counter-clockwise motion, via a controll switch on the main nickel plated shaft. This one is 4" long overall, and has a 1/8" width tip at the end, in very good condition with very little wear. Works and looks good!
