Travel razor?

How so? Is it smaller than a normal size razor?

I know very little about straight razors. I'm guessing these are hard to find?

No idea, but I've been straight shaving for the last 12 years or so and it's the first one I've seen.

I've not really gotten into collecting the straight razors, but I have three that I've had for a while and basically picked them up because they were Case.

The first is a clear amber handle. It has "PREPAREDNESS" stamped on one side of the tang, and "W.R. Case & Sons BRADFORD PA" on the other.

The Next is kind of a Mottled or Caramel Swirl pattern handle, & Has "W.R. Case & Sons CUTL'Y CO Little Valley N.Y. on the tang.

The Last is a Swirl Pattern Handle, Has a blade end broken off. It has a blade etch of W.R. Case & Sons, and stamped on the tang is W.R. CASE & SONS Bradford, PA

To tell you the truth, I can't even remember when or where I picked these up. I haven't done much with them other than wipe them down

I was at a flea market this morning and saw a straight razor that looked like it had a stencil type etch for Case Brothers Little Valley, NY. I let it be thinking it was homemade but came home and looked and found this one on Ebay, so surely it was right and there are more. I'm thinking maybe now it was a contract razor and they just bought them blank and stenciled their name on them. Are there more?

Rainy day here. I had time to do some research today. I found out that Tony Bose owned a Case Brothers / Little Valley razor and posted a picture in one of the other forums. Amazing bit of history here and apparently the Case Bros. razor production was short lived. Very interesting. I won't post any of their pictures.

Recently picked this guy up. I just recently started dabbling in razors, but I've never seen anything quite like this. "The Case Razor"
