Atlanta Area - Antique Shave Stand

Disclaimer - I don't know anything about this item, nor anybody associated with it; just a heads up in case anybody is looking for one. If one of us doesn't get it, it'll probably end up in some Dunwoody soccer mom's hall holding up purses and keys.

The shave stand pictured is currently at the Powder Springs antique mall at the corner of Macedonia and New Macland. Tagged at $75 including pitcher and basin. Still has both towel bars. It's in the southwest corner booth (or maybe the next one up the west wall).

Holy crap!! I live off of Bullard!! I never would have suspected I'd come across someone else in P-town on here!!

I actually bought my 1st Geneva Cutlery Co. razor there last week!! There was also a Lee Mfg. Co. razor in the same case, but I opted to pass, as I wanted a round tip.

Yep, that's also where I found my NOS Otto Fromm. I'm on the other side of town; toward Austell.

Actually there was a third razor in that case, a pre 1890 Joseph Rodgers & Sons etched with Hollow Ground that I picked up. Was considering that Geneva and Lee, but have held back. Hope you got a good price. If I remember, those were within a few bucks of each other. The Joseph Rodgers was in Great shape, and quickly became one of my favorites, was able to get them to knock 15$ off the asking price. A few months earlier from the same case I picked up a Geneva Pacific for 20. It too shaves really good, and was in a little better shape than the one you got. Hope to see a lot more straights in that place in the future. Do you need honing, or do you hone? I do have hones and can sharpen if you need. I'd be willing to make that razor nice and sharp for you.
I'm in Amberton!
