    Default Anybody collect Dixies?

    Is there anybody out there besides me? Not the prettiest things in the world but they just appeal to me.

    Dixie Manufacturing, Union City, GA (outside of Atlanta I think)

    Both of these are in process. The one on the left is a Master Barber model. The other one is a no-name.
    I have one with nice celluloid scales that are black alternating with faux mother of pearl. That one is being honed right now.
    I also have a Blue Steel model coming from the bay.
    Dixie's seem to be plentiful and make decent shavers.

    A little fancier than most Dixies, the top one is all original with 'cracked corn' celluloid. The bottom one found a home in the 'Master Barber' scales. They are from an unknown German razor. Lots of makers put Master Barber on Razors, I think!
