There are a lot of Stillson and Stillson pattern wrenches, I've seen Walworth Stillson and Genuine Stillson marked wrenches but this a very well-used Popular Stillson. More Stillson info at Alloy Artifacts.

The great thing about these wrenches is they're still useful to this day to hold or turn anything round or sort-of-round without a finish. I bet that in a truck or metal fab shop somewhere today, somebody will use a Stillson wrench.
