Default Help Identifying 4" Adjustable Jaguar/Garrington Wrench

Greetings!

I am a regular poster in the X150 forum and a Jaguar enthusiast. A friend gave me a 4" Adjustable Jaguar/Garrington Wrench, marked with "A6" and featuring the Jaguar logo from what I believe to be the late 40's-50's. The wrench belonged to her father, a Jaguar and Lotus mechanic who has passed away.

I would love to identify what possible models this was supplied with new. So far, my research indicates that it might be a Mark VII or another Jaguar from that time period. JCNA once published a book on Jaguar Tools and Tool Sets but I have been unable to locate a copy.

Can anyone help me identify what model this wrench may have originally come with? I am not interested in selling it, just in knowing more about the history.

The pictures are posted below. Thank you in advance for any assistance you can provide!

I can't help with what tool kit it came in but I did discover poking around that Garrington label is pre 1951. After 1951 it changed to garringtons.
