Looks like a great kit in pretty good condition, you would probably want to condition the leather when you get it with saddle soap or something like that. Keep us posted!

Not sure but it looks like a British Aristocrat. If that is what it is, or an early USA Executive, the one with rhodium plating, nice score.

Nice score, Bill. Now you've gotta take a trip and test her out.
I love the smell of shaving cream in the morning!

Thanked: 0 Sad ending ......
Hi all
Been traveling. I got the it , seller did not pack it well and.....
It was made in 1948 and lasted over 50 years to end its life in transit to the USA via FEDEX.... Not enough packing, every piece of glass was either shatterd or cracked.
Razor and all sterling lids are ok.... But how do I replace the glass ?
