Very cool! Looks like a nice stone - give it a try and see how it does. Nice find!

What a great idea, if the razor doesn't work out you could frame it with the newspaper. Great story and Congrats!
A sweet find for sure! I would say a Thuri as well, but that coticule looks really good to, at this point in time a coticule cost more then Escher, and synthetics like Swaty's even more, not the same story today.
What a find! are there any neat articles in that newspaper?
Ya Andrew, it very well could be one of these guys.

Sure looks a lot like them.
xiaotuzi, would it be possible to take some closer, clearer photos of just the blade? Might give a better idea to the pros.
Yup i would agree thats a tappered blade, the hone wear is even along the spine. Stone looks like a thuri to me
Thanks everyone for the shared enthusiasm! I was thrilled to find this and very pleased to hear your knowledge and cool suggestions. Thanks!:rock: Here are some pictures of the newspaper, I like the sports section and the add for tailored suits. Every time I touch the paper more pieces break off. Also is a better picture of the razor and the coti.
Yessir Colin, it's a tapered blade. Very nice!
Here's closer of the blade. Yeah it looks a lot like the tapered ones
