| Made is USA |
 |
| Pruning Shears (hand made & marked) |

| I actually need these for my 70's Titanium bicycle (made by Teledyne in Gardena, CA). |
 |
| The old Hot Wheel on the right is an Isuzu Vehicross. It's actually a very well done model of a very strange vehicle (that Isuzu should never have built... They sold very few and probably lost money on...). |
