Antique Medical S Maw& Sons Rare Tattoo Pliers in Wooden Case Livestock Marking

A rare pair of livestock marking tattoo pliers by S. Maw Son & Sons Ltd.

These pliers date from the early Twentieth Century to circa the 1940s. They are in a very good vintage condition, with some wear and bubbling to the chrome resulting in a few small patches of rust (please see photos). Otherwise all seems to be intact and working, with plenty of the needled numbers which would be set into the stamping end, tightened with a wingnut. Pliers themselves measuring approximately 13 1/2 long.
