Found these in a bunch of sewing stuff the wife bought at a yard sale.Near as I can tell they are solid brass and they open and close nicely. Also found what I think is a 1958 east german penny along w/ a Millard Filmore coin about the size of a quarter made by crackerjacks mystery club.

Reply:I remember one of my sisters had a pair of pliers on a charm bracelet, early 60's?

Reply:What amazed me is that they actually work just like full size pliers and just as smooth. Yes, I realized they're just a trinket,but the quality surprised me. They probably have better workmanship than a lot of chinese pliers sold today. Duane, I didn't use the east german penny figuring someone would say" Where did you find that very tiny coin. Or Zap would say"Where's the dime!!!! ?".

Reply:Originally Posted by Oldiron2In the '60's, the Fillmore* in San Francisco was where Bill Graham presented groups like the Jefferson Airplane, The Who, Quicksilver Messenger Service, The Doors, Otis Redding, and of course the Grateful Dead. Can you make out the writing on the pliers; it looks to me like the name of some foundry.Because they're brass, small and handy, and you asked; Yes, I need them!* No, I've never been there.
