    Default G.C & J.H. Philadelphia

    Anyone have any information on G.C. & J.H. Philadelphia. I don't know if they were makers or a wholesale/retail store. My searches so far have come up empty. It is a lot like a C.F. Wolfertz & Co. Allentown blade I have. Same grind, blade weight and size. This a 7/8 full hollow grind with a 1/4" spine. Horn scales with a lead wedge.

    I found it While reading (1895) Essay on Barber's Razors, Razor Hones, Razor Strops and Razor Honing by Napoleon LeBlanc. The razor was made by George F. Creutzburg & Son Philadelphia, Pa.
