Description
The scissors are a boxset of four from The ACME shear company. The name of the brand is Eversharp. I found an ad from a magazine which is apparently from 1951. The scissors are 24k gold plated and were $29.99 originally. The scissors are labeled "Forgedsteel USA." They're in a leather case lined with gold and green felt. The scissors and case look nearly untouched and are in great condition.
