N/A
Amazing pair of antique Tailor Scissors with original owner's provenance. There are not any specific markings on the scissors. Possibly made by R Heinisch and the markings worn off from use? There is a taped description on the blades about the original owner. They belonged to Christian Bauer that was in business before 1870. I looked up the name and there was a Christian Bauer that was a hatter in 1870's NJ., which seems to confirm the identity. very good working condition, they cut very well. right-handed scissors. Listed on the 1870 Federal Census for Newark, Christian was working as a hatter (a person who makes or sells hats) while 38-year-old Catherine, who was known as Katie, was at home raising Otto (10), Anna (9), Frank (8), Edward (5), and George (3).
