Over the weekend, I went to visit my little girl at college, in Boston. Beacon hill is littered with antique shops, so I decided to check a few out. I found only one razor, and it was priced a bit high for me. It was a Rogers with a good bit of hone wear and some rust near the pivot. It did have some neat whale bone scales though. The shop wouldnt move off of the forty dollar price tag, so I had to say goodbye. Had a name carved into the scales and was early 1900s blade.
Same shop had a neat occupational shaving mug. It said "Autoist" and had a cool car on it. Four Hundred and Fifty Dollars! Thats $450 American! Four one hundreds and a fifty. Holy Moses. Needless to say, I left empty handed but with a new appreciation for my local antique stores and auction houses.
