Default Early T wrench?

This appears to be an early Ford wrench, going by metal thickness, early script style & lack of any manufacturers marks. Is it an early version of the tranny band wrench from the brass era?. It is definately not from the Model A or V8 era; it has enough metal for 2 wrenches of those types.
Thanks.
Tom

Yes.

Here are a few, the top one or 'fat' is typical of the pre-'15 tool kit, the others are the Price Book part#1917's which are the most found Model T wrenches today. Double ended wrench used to tighten the bands.

Page of closeup is from the Sept. 1912 Parts and Price Book.

Thanks tmodelman ; great photos that confirm my wrench is 1915 or earlier. Most T tools are the late types, so I grabbed this one when I saw it at a swapmeet.
Thanks again.
