I came across a razor today like the one below. I am trying to get a good handle on the date as well as approx current price. The guy has a high price tag on it but I might call him back with some reality pricing! It doesn't have the stropper attachment or any blades, but the case is pretty good with very good graphics and the razor itself is excellent. Thoughts?? Thnx!! Attachments:

Is that not two blades to the right of the head in the picture. I know nothing of the date and with out seeing more pics can only guess at the condition... but prolly a neat find if he comes down on the price to something you like.

It isn't the one in pic above Fuzzy. I found that on stropper.com just to use as an example. I couldn't find a better pic anywhere on the net.
1902-1904 - yeah that would make sense. I am pretty sure (although old man brain is failing!) that it had thd 1900 and 1901 patents on the back like so many do. It isn't quite a special item, I was just curious re the date in that case.
I will see if I can yack him down a fair bit (he is thinking in the 60s, I am thinkin in the 20s - we'll see - unfortunately some 'antique seller' saw his little pile for sale and told him that was his 'crowning glory' - yeah maybe, since the other stuff was in such crappy shape, but the reality is the value just ain't that high).
I still don't have one of these dern things yet though so I am kind of motivated. I just hate overpaying for stuff though and I have been spending a little too much of late.
thnx guys!

$35 sounds fair for that set.

$35 sounds fair for that set. I think he'd go for that. That might be a fair offer. Thnx Dave. I will be able to track him next week. I'll let you guys know if I pick it up. I am tempted to go a little lower so that I have some headroom should I need to sell it off. I like to think I am makin a little each purchase too, rather than just breakin even at par. I'll see how he feels about it! Fuzzy - "DUHHH you did say one like that... ;D ;D ;D YEP! ha! tis ok!! thnx!!!!
