Need some help dating this ratchet. Alloy Artifacts is a little short on getting past the '40's (70-series...)

This is a PV 71M 3/8 drive reversible ratchet. It is 6 inches long. Has no hole in the far end and no markings on the underside. Top side is marked "PV 71M Snap-on USA" (not "Kenosha").

Is this '50's vintage?
