    Description

    I will combine shipping on multiple wins. Please allow me time after an auction ends to figure the total amount, or you may contact me to request a total once you are all done.
    Please note that eBay now adds sales tax to auctions and that USPS rates went up recently. I do my best to keep costs down, but I have no control over other entities. Thanks.
    Old dressmaking or tailor's shears/scissors as best I can determine, manufactured with the stamp of the Allentown Cutlery Co. I couldn't find anything when searching for that specific mark but did find one for the C. F. Wolfertz & Co. hardware store which apparently manufactured knives, razors and scissors and under the name of Allentown Cutlery Works - had to believe it wouldn't be the same company. In any case, the scissors are made of chrome plated carbon steel. They have been used, black paint on handles partially worn away, dark areas on inside/in-plated area of arms, one tip apparently broken off, open and close easily. See pictures. Stamped "ALLENTOWN CUTLERY CO. (arc) / ----<>--- / ALLENTOWN, PA." beside pivot.
    Overall length 8", edge length 3-5/8", 2-1/2" wide. Contact me if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks for looking, and good luck!
    Note: Payment required within 3 days of auction ends or eBay will begin an Unpaid Item case.
    Note to bidders outside of U.S. - I now use eBay's Global Shipping service to provide the best chance of getting your item to you safely.
    Please note that I will not be responsible if your package does not arrive for any reason, and I cannot provide any information once it has been shipped. I will not offer a refund for non-delivery.
    Please keep this in mind when you bid. Thank you very much.
