No discussion of Craftsman tools would be complete without at least some mention of the Dunlap brand, a sister brand used for a line of economy tools. The Dunlap brand was supposedly named after Tom Dunlap, the manager of the Sears hardware division from the 1930s through the 1950s. Sears filed a trademark application for the Dunlap brand in 1938 and the trademark was issued as #369,614 on August 1, 1939. The trademark registration shows an oval design enclosing the text "Dunlap", and the first use date was listed as January 23, 1937. Source:http://alloy-artifacts.org/craftsman-early-tools-p4.html#dunlap-pliers
