Fans- Two halbard blades, near pair

Shakethetrees · 7th November 2015, 10:20 PM

I posted these a while back on the forum. Time has come for them to move on.

I believe they are Victorian, and are totally unmarked. I included an image of what in my poor iPad images could be construed as a mark, but they are just holes that were filled by peening a disc of iron into the hole and working a cold chisel radially around the filler to lock it in securely.

There were narrow cheek straps at one time that were probably lost when they lost their hafts if you choose to re mount them this is an easy fix, for those of you who are acquainted with this type of metal work.

I included a yardstick to gauge their size.

I would like to get $250.00 each, U.S., plus postage and insurance. I will sell them individually, but would hope they stay together if possible.

I'd rather be paid by a U.S. Postal money order, personal check, or anything but PayPal if possible due to their fees, but I'm flexible.

Personal checks will have to clear before I ship.

Thanks for having a look!

The title should read "For Sale"!
