Vintage Henry Cheney Little Falls NY Nail Holding Claw Hammer poss murder weapon. I bought this with 2 other hammers at an estate sale years ago. Guy running the sale made a comment that the lady in the house was charged with trying to kill her husband with a hammer years before and that one of these might be the hammer. I just laughed paid and left. I cleaned up a bunch of hammers last week and as i was getting ready to take the tape off this one i noticed the faded writing! It says "EVIDENCE" and in smaller wrting below says DADE then blank, then POLICE DEPT. Cant make out the rest. Wish i had noticed when i bought it id have asked more questions. Anyway, its 12 1/2" overall and head seems slightly smaller then normal average cheney claw hammer. Octogon poll. Will clean up nicer. Be the first one on your block with a vintage murder weapon in your collection!! Sale was in largo fla i believe and family was originally from ohio. Feel free to ask any questions.
