I collect ( or try to ) toolbags/ information and tools and am trying to research the initials UTK which appear on a split rivet head on the bags. I have seen these initials on on a wrench and have had others referance them to other non automotive related items, do these initials mean anything to anyone here. Must have been a manuf. that delved ( in the least ) in auto during this time period, seen them on bags as early as 29 all the way to 34. Thanks for any leads.

Presume you refer to 'dome' fasteners on these bags. No markings on the one I have.
Would be hard to find out--'good luck'.
Do not forget about Canadian design bags. Virtually unknown about in Nth America.
No domes, single tie strap & probably a better design.

Gary Johnson has done some research on Model A Tool Bags. Maybe he can chime in on this.

However his article in the September/October 2009 issue of Model A News (MARC) does not tell of the initials "UTK".
