Cast Iron Saw Clamp Saw Vice most likely made by Wentworth

Just to add a bit more information, it is a Wentworth's Improved Saw Vice....

Edit: hbeaton edited his post and added picture while I was posting this. So just duplicate information. Not sure how one can tell whether it's the standard or Improved mode. They both look the same.
