    I just saw them; I don't know much about brushes. They look to be in great condition. Are you a collector of brushes or mainly razors? I collect razors now, used to be firearms. I thought razors would be cheaper.
    Oh, how wrong I was to think that.

    But I do enjoy the razor collecting better, though.

    I suspect all these different vintage brushes though they have different names on them were made by the same manufacturer. The styles are similar, the colors used are too and the set in rubber log which must have been patented.

    I have an Erskine "Set in Rubber" brush as well that I picked up from and antique store the other day. The brush was toast, so I have to re-do it, but it shouldn't be too bad. I like yours better than mine. Mine looks like the white half of your second one without the red bulb at the top.
