Description
VERY RARE & UNIQUE ANTIQUE/VTG 11" TIN SNIPS "C G & Co". or "G C & Co". "EXTRA" You are bidding on a lightly used very very RARE pair of ANTIQUE/VINTAGE 11" LONG C G 7 & Co. or G C 7 & Co. EXTRA (see all pics). I have looked all over the internet trying to figure out the manufacture of these very nice looking vintage tin snips, but could not find anything?? The shears open and close nice and smoothly with no issues at all. There's NO chips on the cutting edges (see all pics). But both tops of the shears have flat spots from being hit with a hammer (see pics). On one side of the shears there's C G 7 & Co. or G C 7 & Co. stamped into the shank of the shears, just below the pivot rivet (see pics). And on the other side of the shank, there's the word: EXTRA with another word under it that I can't make out what it might say?? (see pics). The shears appear to be made out of some very very good steel (see pics). And the two handle ends almost come together perfectly (see pics). The shears are 11" long, and weigh in at 1 pound 6.0 oz. If you are a collector of vintage/antique unusual tools, then you will not be disappointed in these well over 100+ year old tin snip shears. PICTURES TELL THE STORY..
