Greetings to everyone on this forum. I'm joining because I am lsearching for a specific single-punch plier punch--although I'd be happy just to get an image of one. This will date to the 1880's-1890's and was made under contract by Smith & Egge Manufacturing Company for the post office department.  Any help or suggestions for locating one of these will be appreciated!

Thank you!

PG1
