Is that because it has one ballFor a 50/50 split on the take at Sotheby's I will swear it was the personal razor of Hermann Göring.
With you there, sir. A 100 year old, U.S. made Gillette razor found in a German ship that sank during WW2. It may not be a Darwin or double/single ring plated with whale’s knob cheese but how many of us have or know a razor with a story, a provenance like that? I mean it’s not Sweeney Todd’s murderous straight but still what an amazing find and thrilling story.Looks like 1920's pocket edition to me!
Have a look at those links @Mike Smart
