Phenomenal Billings & Spencer / Pope Mfg. Co. Wrench

5″ Size • Patented February 18, 1879

A phenomenal 5-inch patented wrench produced by Billings & Spencer for the Pope Manufacturing Company, covered under the February 18, 1879 patent—a compact, beautifully made, and highly collectible early adjustable wrench from two of Hartford’s most important industrial makers.

This 5″ size is the one collectors love: small, elegant, and packed with detail. The form is classic Pope—clean lines, crisp casting, and that unmistakable early Hartford look. Billings & Spencer’s workmanship is evident throughout, with tight machining and a smooth, confident adjustment. These early Pope‑pattern wrenches are scarce, and fine examples in the 5″ size are always in demand.

A standout piece with excellent surfaces and strong patent character
