Is this a Puma?
EARLY PUMA-MAKER "ELECTRIC" (!) VINTAGE STRAIGHT RAZOR - eBay (item 110534592958 end time Jun-16-10 13:06:39 PDT)
I don't see the Puma markings on the tang.

The seller doesn't claim it's Puma razor, just that Friedman&Lauterjung made the Puma razors at a later period.
I guess without such claim they couldn't justify the $30 asking price for a blade in such poor shape.

I've been curious as to whether the Lauterjung mentioned above was out of the family of the same name that owned and ran Puma up until sometime in the '80s or '90s when the company was sold. I'm at work so I can't get to my Goin's. I don't know if that info would be in there anyhow.
Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
