    Haha I saw that couldn't figure out why I needed it. I guess put it in an expensive frame in the living room as art?

    jaro the dread and the fear

    you know those very pretty printed gillette cases that have the stamped gillette on the outside And those felt liners on the inside of those gillette cases that have the stamped logo?? you would use that to make those with.. lay your foil sheet on the fabric and that would press the foil indention into the case or material !!
    Someone (YOU) would be able to redo the liners and cases to look Brand New with the proper plates!!!

    Other than it's a rough looking user grade that needs cleaning I don't know how to date them and the differences Gary. What can you tell me about it.

    It would need to be a hot stamp plate. A short lived restorer in the UK made one, but he stopped doing restores.

    Edit: you should do a charcoal rubbing.

    I was just saying what His acquisition would have been used for and yes he would need to research how to use what he has...
    And yes he could do a etching with it and frame that
