Snap-On Decal Prototype?

Post by CovahYdoolB »

Has anyone seen or know what these decals are/were for? Approximate value?

Story behind them starts with my Grandmother. She worked for Snap-On for 28 years. Being an avid collector she bought my Grandfather hundreds of thousands of dollars in Snap-On tools and collected anything and everything. Shortly before she passed away she gave each of us grandchildren a gift. These were my gift. I know she lived in East Troy WI most her life and worked at the closest Snap-On Factory from there and died in 1996. I have tried several times looking up what these were for or any close decal but to NO AVAIL. Could someone shed some light on these has bothered me for a very long time.

Thank You for your time and Dedication to making perfect tools. I Love and Miss You Lots Grandma.
Sincerely CovahYdoolB

ZMT3760 tells me they are decals for the MT3760 battery tester AVR, but that is not what your last picture shows that is for a battery charger face. They don't have much value unless you find someone with the tester or charger that want's new decals because they really don't fit the collectible market

I understand looked up the battery tester and all I could find was the red model. These stickers my Grandmother told me were Prototypes never released to the public. If I could find any picture out them with the “BLUE” decals I would take your wisdom immediately. The package still smells like a Snap-On Factory. I would most likely never sell them but can not find a single source out there that resembles anything like them. The stickers are insanely durable! I only used 2 in my life right after I was given them ‘97 on a outside tin shed which we tore down before the stickers wore out or became sun faded in ‘06. The front dial gauge plate stickers mean nothing much honestly since only own 2 and are both partially wrecked. If anyone could maybe give more insight I think the tall stickers had nothing to do with the gauge stickers or the packaging. If I cared about any thing that was of value it would of been the perfect collection my grandmother had slowly made of every tool she manufactured over the 28 years she worked there.

I have many prototype items that I got from a friend that worked in product promotion in Kenosha such as belt buckles, knives, key fobs & etc. but when I have tried to sell some of them on eBay they don't bring any more than the normal ones and when your talking about a part for a piece of equipment you have really limited the number of people that would be interested

those are for the 3760 Battery charger it was made during a special promotion period - won't have much value unless someone wants to refresh their charger
