Wood handled Tongs
« on: January 10, 2013, 08:51:03 PM »
Picked up these today
There a  really solid set of tongs and look brand new
Any idea what year/ decade their from?
I haven't seen them in any of my 80/90's catalogues
The lady I bought them off was selling a mid 80's OTS as well
Though I'm thinking their probably from the 90's

Hogsy, those are 60's -70's.  I have seen them in 70's catalog for sure, I know there is a link on this site somewhere for old catalogs. I already owe you a few pictures but I can add a catalog pic to the list I am sending you.  You all are finding some really cool stuff in OZ.

Not sure of the year of the catalog, well when is
 say catalog I mean owners manual but I'm thinking late 80's early 90's cause there's a Performer in it
