Description: MADE BY BROWN & SHARPE MFG. CO. PROVIDENCE R.I. U.S.A. Brown & Sharpe Manufacturing Company, located in Providence, Rhode Island, USA. Brown & Sharpe was a renowned manufacturer of precision tools and machinery, including hair clippers, during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. "PAT'D IN GREAT BRITAIN BELG. EN FRANCE & G.D.G." This indicates that the design of the hair clippers was patented in multiple countries, including Great Britain, Belgium, France, and Germany (G.D.G. likely stands for "Grodeutsches Gebiet" or "Greater German Reich"). This suggests that the clippers were popular and widely distributed internationally. "U.S.A. PATENTS. AUGUST 23, 1892. AUGUST 2, 1901." This line lists two US patents associated with the hair clippers' design. The first patent was granted on August 23, 1892, and the second on August 2, 1898. These dates provide valuable information for dating the clippers and researching their specific design features. Overall Analysis: This vintage pair of hair clippers, manufactured by Brown & Sharpe, boasts a rich history evident in its detailed engravings. The multiple patents and international distribution speak to the quality and popularity of the clippers during their time. This piece would be of interest to collectors of antique tools, hairdressing memorabilia, or anyone fascinated by industrial history. Item description Please look closely at all images.
