Hi, sorry to bug everyone about this but I'm rather curious about a
couple of razor distributors in the ohio area. I've been to the
files/etc. here and I've looked at some online razor company history
sites but have gotten nothing.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Does anyone know anything about the "Youngstown B S. Co." (a.k.a. the
youngstown barber supply company) of Youngstown Ohio, and "WH Baughman
Co" of Akron Ohio.

What I've found so far is thus:

Youngstown B S. Co Owned by Harry Spero operated under this name from
1910 to 1928. in 1928 the address was listed as 310 North avenue
Youngstown Ohio.

I'm still waiting on the information from historical archives at UofA
in Akron on the WH Baughman. It sounds like both companies had razors
made elsewhere (the baughman's obviously in germany). I'd like to
figure out, if possible, who made the razors for them, and in the case
of the baughman's, what date(s) they made the Baughman's No. 49. or if
it is number 49 out of so many of a limited edition razor made
specifically for that company.

Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks
