On the left is a google earth image of the Genco factory site in its current condition in Geneva, New York. I'm pretty sure this is the correct site south of Grant Avenue, and I think that may be remnants of the actual building. On the right is the 1917 representation. Someone in the Geneva area should drive over and see if the milling equipment is still there! :)

wonder if there are any blanks left in there
Too late to edit my previous post, but I said Grant Avenue was the address of the factory in Geneva. I should have said Gates Avenue. That's what the aerial photo shows.
Ah.... The most underrated razor out there.
Here are two of my five the Head Barber

I almost had four more but got snipped at the last second.
Geneva Convention is a pretty clever name, I got "Genco Pura" from The Godfather. It was the name of Don Vito's olive oil company.
That's just a list of Genco models I've seen on ebay, I've only got four of them.:(Quote:
what a fine collection you have .. I thought I was doing well with 5 or 6
Ahhhh ok , a man after my own heart tho . I'm no David Bailey so I'll try and get my lovely wife to take a picture of my little Geneva Convention and I'll post them up .
Looks like I'll have competition on ebay now LOL :jedi:
If I see you bidding I'll leave it be .
Cheers Garry
