About MeThe Aberdeen Comb Works produced a large range of combs, cups and the like from its founding in the 1800's using horn as its main material. By the 20th century it had switched to plastics, and widened into producing everything from bottle tops, to surgical equipment.
These netting needles were samples to show the quality of their wares.
