This page comes courtesy of Tom Adelstein of American Globe Watch Tools. Tom posted this and a lot of other useful information on his horological web site and has generously made his research available for use here. Tom's posting identifies this page as having come from a 1950 Lindstrom tools catalog. Lindstrom are still around today and make a wide variety of high quality precision tools.
The page establishes that the 18B & 18R were introduced prior to 1951. The product descriptions are consistent with the equivalent pages in the 1961 catalog, with the exception that the 18L model is not listed here.
The 18B is listed as "New" here, indicating that it was likely introduced sometime around 1950. The description here is consistent with the 18B simply being the 18R without the friction jeweling accessories.
