It's kind of cool! I think it's powered by a string pulled through it. Humm. I'm no internet wizard, so I can't convert to an animated gif. There's a very short video here: http://9gag.com/gag/aEn62K9
Is that a Damaskeen? (spelling?) or a Lather Catcher? Razors are like cars. If I own that model, I know it. I don't know old style SE's very much. Learning Schicks & Gillettes!
No doubt. That the razor survived in great condition is amazing. Unbelievable that the case & original paperwork are so nice!
It is quite rare indeed to find them in this shape. It must have been in a trunk or suitcase for decades or there is just no way. I have been looking for a really nice one like this for about a year now. This is one of two, and this one is easily the nicer of the pair
