Description
The serial number on the razor matches the shipper 665276B although I can't make out the B on the shipper.The razor looks slightly used and near mint but it has a hard to see stress crack on the handle near the neck as seen in the light reflection of pic 2. These weren't the most durable handles but I think someone cranked it down a bit maybe causing the crack and pulling the plating down a bit (light circle) from the center post on top of the hat. You should be able to see that in at least one pic too. Other than that the razor is excellent, no bent teeth and the plating looking real nice.
The case is excellent. The spring works great nothing wrong with the leather exterior, the inside real clean with no tears and just a slight crease on the back drop from the razor head. The blade case has some very light scratches but looks great with one blade. Two sets of different types of instructions/advertisement. The shipper has a bit of wear with the sides separating a bit but still intact and pretty strong.
Thanks for looking and I may have some other razors posted.
