Clipping the wings ofa Kellog's red hen in Callander
Shearing the Derby ram of mythic proportions
Styling the split ends ofLady Godiva
Trimming the horny toe nails of the great god Pan
Cutting detective Colombo's Havana cigars
Shaping the outrageous moustache of Salvador Dali
Clipping the nasal hairs ofIvan the Terrible
Sculpting the queen's hedges in Alice in Wonderland
Snipping a cod piece for King Henry VIII
Cutting a photomontàge for André Breton
Dead heading a rose in a garden in Leamington Spa
Slicing a ribbon unveiling a statue of Greyfriar's Bobby's head
Cutting the umbilical cord of Mussolini
Decluttering a warthog of skin tags
Scissors of the world, we salute you!
