Another cast iron thingy found at a used tool shop. The angular end could be a stove or carriage-type wrench, but the curvy end is pretty confusing. Any ideas or guesses?
It will stand on the curvy end, for what it's worth.
0426. Lot of Two:
(1.) 32 (Charles G. Allen and Belcher & Taylor.) - - 8.25" wrench and pitman tool. Excellent. (R1-9)
(2.) Unmarked - - 8.25" like 32 wrench above, Excellent.
We have to thank Dave for finding that! (See comments)
Now, how is it used?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's some kind of prying tool.

This auction catalog says it's a "8.25" wrench and pitman tool:"

Reference the top wrench number 426:

Apparently "pitman tools" were common tools included with farm implements.
Wow. Dave. I don't know how you found that one. Thanks! I've added the info to the post.
