AntiqueDARLING, Brown & SharpeStandard Music Wire Gauge Wheel12 to 28Excellent Used ConditionBrown & Sharpe was founded in 1833 on South Main Street[3] in Providence, Rhode Island by David Brown and his son Joseph R. Brown. The elder Brown retired in 1841, and the younger Brown formed a partnership with Lucian Sharpe in 1853, giving the company its name.The early years were full of innovations and inventions, including the first automatic machine for graduating rules (1850) and... the precision Gear Cutting and Dividing Engine (1855).[3]The company was incorporated in 1868. In 1866 Samuel Darling joined the partnership and the firm changed its name to Darling, Brown and Sharpe until Darling's interest was bought out in 1892.NOTE: I am not a machinist nor a carpenter by trade. I paid dearly for these items at an estate sale. I will keep some for tinkering.
I looked to see what these (or very similar) items have SOLD for on eBay over the last 6 months. Then I calculated the average (you can look too). That's what I used 90% of the time for my asking price. I think that's fair since most of these items are in better than average to excellent condition for as old as they are. I will do my best to describe each item. Please look at all the pictures and the condition report. If you have any questions just send me a message and I will try to answer within a day or two at most. Thank you for your interest.
