I need search experts help and maybe the help of the elder generation

My landlord was cleaning out some stuff and I got to lay dibs on first pick through before it was taken to the salvation army for donations.

well I grabbed something I am going to sell on Ebay or think I can sell on Ebay

In my searches I can't find a picture of them so I will deswcibe them

I think they are beard trimmers or shavers but very old.

The cutting head looks like that of an electrick razor with the blade that runs across the stationary comb but instead of the body of an electric shaver it has two handles like handle on a scissor that opporate the moving balde to cut the hair/whiskers

Two of them are made by brand name "Priests Proffesional" made in U.S.A and the other is made by brand name "Brown & Sharpe MFG. Co. Providence" made in USA.

The Brown and Sharpe has a Bressant Trade Mark label on the blade guard plate.

If some one can find info and pictures of these can you please post a link.

To me they look something like what would be used in a barber shop.

thanks in advance, Todd .

Your clippers could be manual barber's clippers, or manual sheep shears. The primary difference would be in the size -- sheep shears would be wider than clippers made for human haircuts.

A quick google image search turned up just the one picture, but the accomapnyng article might give you a lead to a site with mor info on antique clippers.
