Item Description
The longest celluloid opener is for the “Norris Lumber Co. Houston, Texas.” While clean this has tiny indents on the wide end, each side, to a depth of about 1”. Other all celluloid pieces include Whitehead & Hoag from Hartford Branch and early 1900s. Next from "Woolson Spice". Next for "Coes Wrench Co." Next for a maker of sugar machinery. The rest have celluloid handles and metal blades. These include a coal company, a glove company, a Miami builder, "Weirton Steel", “Willy’s”, "Adler" with encased four leaf clover. The two smallest items have a knife blade, one with folding celluloid handles advertising “Tomlinson No-Drop Faucets” and the other with blade and cork screw advertising “Genuine Black Diamond Cap Screws And Plow Bolts.” Bit of oxidation on a few of the metal blades but overall an extremely clean group.
