Hi Guys Got a bunch of stuff about to land in the next few weeks. These are the sellers pics. I will reshoot when they get here. The first, I believe is a combination set from 1921 with serial #542A. I don't think the blade cases are right but perhaps someone else knows. The case also has some odd button on the flap ( an eagle with the #32 on it) which I think was put there at some point of time. The next looks like an Aristocrat #21. Next is a nice '46-'47 Rhodium Aristocrat from the States, which I'm pretty sure is missing the blade case..and finally a #15 Aristocrat that I BIN'd from a member on the 'bay. The deal was bit more than I wanted and a bit less than he hoped for so I think we both made out well. Good guy to buy from, knowledgeable and very fair. So lots of stuff to keep me occupied for a while
I don't know why but the bands on the Aristocrat lend it a better look in rhodium than the Diplomat/President (those without the bands). Very classy!
Nice looking razors. The Eagle and 32 is someone who was a 32 degree Scottish Rite which is part of the Freemasons.
You're welcome Jody. Also the Aristocrat I thought was a #21 is really another #15 in a different case, which is what threw me off. Another member pointed out that the #21 is a solid bar not an open tooth. So much to learn
