    I need the lining top and bottom for the most part but will consider a case or a set as shown bellow. Those sets were created from leftover cases and late NEW SC nickel plated razors for the US market. I have seen that set more than once in the past. I am in Canada and would take shipments from USA. Straight payment or trade is possible. Thanks!

    For clarification, please make sure your case states "Algonquin" before you contacting me!
    I have been contacted from sellers who have "Bostonian" written on the inside of the case.
    Thank you!

    I know you are looking for "Original" but I have seen others take the same felt material that Gillette uses, and print the Logo and Wording on the felt. To be honest, the end results looked original/nos. Something to think about.

    One other person, who closed up shop after about six months. And yes, that is an option. The custom plate will cost around $200. The hot stamp apparatus costs as well (expensive), and the foil, which is negligible.

    It was a pity, as he did phenomenal restoration work.
