These were found in a tool box that I purchased recently. Most of the tools in the box were from the 50's and 60's, these may be later. Some are in original Maynard P. Buehler Co packaging. The others aren't marked but may be from Buehler. All screws appear new, even the one's in the plain...

I think it's an after market device to help increase the speed of the shifting.
There should be date codes on the derailleur and crank arms to narrow down the date. You could also just email Richard Sachs with the serial number.
To properly dish the wheel you will need a dishing tool. Minoura makes an inexpensive folding one.
