  3. Hello Larry, in the past five years I have seen at least five of them pop up. I think there must have been some purpose for them, but I know not what.
  4. It was just a novelty razor I think. But that base plate and head is from a goodwill razor.

  5. Thought it was interesting for sure. Bids are up to almost $30
  6. For size reference, what battery does it use? To me it does not seem to be AA or AAA, but it could be the camera angle.
  7. Here is another picture that was posted with it beside a ruler

  14. I've seen a few suggestions ranging from a lack of widespread electrification at the time it was produced to usage during a wartime blackout.

    Personally, I'd love to see a video of someone actually trying to use one. It seems to me that the razor head would end up blocking a fair amount of the usable light output.
  15. Here is some information from the Waits Compendium:

  16. I love this part: "... shaving is greatly facilitated and entirely relieved of its sanguinary possibilities." :happy068:
  17. Yup, these kinds of razors were made by several different companies throughout the years. Quite common really.
  18. Maybe it lights up when the user gets an idea.
