Looking Info on Snap On Storage Chests

Post by hucklebuck69 »

I have recently started research on vintage Snap On tool boxes which has lead me here. I have found 2 different specimens that have caught my attention, but have not had any luck finding any info on them. I have an idea that they are extremely rare as I haven't seen any other ones like them on the interweb. If you can help, please let me know the style, number, possible production year, rarity, and/or any information you may have about them, thanks.

Pic 1 looks late 50's style. Bottom box looks like a roll front.

Bench top is the K61 Superchest- Later than @ 1957 it may have a mfg. stamp and date on the back or sides.

Rolla- Bench is an infamous 300 of the same vintage, later than @ 1957 may have a stamp.

Together as a set this is the K361.

That bottom pic is a famous tool box. It is 1 of a kind.
I haven't kept up with it, but it used to be in a warehouse in central Fl.
