looks exactly like a sokkisha one I used in the early 1980's - only not in such great condition. It clipped to the tripod.

It tightens the nuts on the tripod legs.

I'm pretty sure that came off an early Wild tripod. I would guess somewhere in the fifties, maybe earlier.

I believe it to be Wild also, but no marking found yet to confirm.
My father-in-law was always a Wild man. (don't take that wrong!):-X
And the 50's could be correct. He started with a T-2 in the latter 50's on copper mines in Chile.
Still have his T-2 also!
