DESCRIPTION:
Boltz, Clymer, & Co., Philadelphia and San Francisco, countertop cigar trimmer, spring driven cutter in a cast iron case with raised lettering listing the name of the company and "Havana Cigars ".
CONDITION:
The cast iron case is in very good condition except for a repair to the lower left section of the top surface. The red paint on lettering was not applied with care and is probably a later addition. The spring driven movement is wound with an integrated key on the right side of the unit. The unit is activated by placing the end of a cigar in the opening and pressing down. The mechanism does seem to be operational. An interesting and rare item.
