    JNO Baker's are still in business today at Dubbo NSW tho only selling farm equpment.
    Contacted them once re a Baker Bengall I had ~ never heard back. Obviously no interest in history.

    Lots of archived stuff & Bengall ads can be found here.

    There were a number of razor makers that were stamped with the JNO Baker branding. Bengal was another one of them.
