    I’ve picked up quite a few wrapped vintage blades. I would love to display them, but never gotten to it. The artwork on some of these are phenomenal!

    I like looking at them, put them in the glass case and hang them in the shaving den bathroom possibly!

    Love vintage blade art, I got a tuck of sears roebuck blades recently, I don' use them... only vintage I use are injector blades from the 70s, 80s, 90s....
    I also use Schick plus platinum DE bladed from late 70s to 80s, those are feather sharp!

    Most razor blades from the 60s on should still be fine. I've used blades made considerably earlier and there it can be hit or miss; but the hits are absolutely amazing.

    I keep wondering who the company (or companies) was that made the various custom wrappers and blades - and if their equipment is still around.
