The first one is a Hanson, I have had several of the larger ones that were cotton scales.

I buy them up, as they are usually not expensive. I especially like the one in your 3rd picture. Most of the ones I have are fish scales, but I love the looks of them. I just picked up this one today.

My brother liked them so he took them. I don't know what I would have done with them.

I have sold two Hansen cotton scales at $40 to $50 in the past several years. I buy them when I find them at a reasonable price.
