History of a Dixon ball vise?

[TwoTrees]

Help! For the first time in a while I’ve been duped and I can’t find any info on this Dixon ball vise. my grandpa was a tool and die maker as well as a jewel and Ive been blessed enough to receive his old gravers and Dixon ball vise. He was a German immigrant and I’m wondering if he traveled with his tools all the way over to the USA. Any information on the company would be much appreciated.

thanks so much for the response JJ. Still can’t find anything on the Dixon company but it’s cool to know that it came all the way from Germany.
