Condition Report
Both pieces display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing. Slightly heavier wear around edges and to tips but both are still fairly sharp. Also some heavier scratches, marks and nicks visible to both. Some minor surface dints. On the 1920's trowel, there is some loss of detail and definition to some of the engraved decoration. Also remnants of a sticker mark are visible. The metal tip of the wood handle is very squashed. The hallmarks to both are clear and legible.
