Hoggson & Pettis conductors punch

 

  Hoggson & Pettis was more known for their Sweetland patent lathe chuck but Samuel Hoggson started the company in 1848 to make stencils, stamping and cutting dies. When Pettit joined the company in 1878, the chuck was added to the product line.

The company is said to have ben in business till at least 1918.
