Ebay find.

Post by Owd Wullie »

Payed more than I wanted, but less than I was prepared to so I guess I shouldn't complain.

Box has a penned in date of 1840. I doubt that either razor is that old. I KNOW the black handled one isn't but I was after the ivory handled razor and the box. Box has seen better days but it's still pretty nice.
The ivory handled JR is a 7/8 without a lot of wear and with minor spotting. The other razor is well worn and I believe it would shave as it is.

Here's the real reason I went after it.

Looks much nicer with two ivory JR's in it and the one on the bottom of th epic is probably closer to the date on the box. :)

I'll clean the top one up a bit and clean all the fuzz and crap out of the box and they'll look even better.
