When you look at the dates the first is 89 which I believe is 1889 because the second is dated 1900 and the third owner buy the name of Bud Lemon is 1940. I`m not sure if I should add my name ,but then I think 150 years down the track it would be nice that some one is staring at a straight razor and know exactly who has owned it during its lifetime and wondering what they were like as I have done
Opinions concerning this matter would be greatly appreciated
Kind regards Peter
