I've just bought three razors off the bay (local to Australia) and one of them was not clearly identified in the sale photos, but as I wanted the pair of Rodgers that were the main deal I took a punt. It turns out to be a Weiss & Son blade from about 1840-1850 as near as I can tell (but I'm quite willing to be proved wrong). The thing I'd like help with is the spine etching. It looks like it could be a day of the week, but is it in some language I'm not familiar with or can I not see the wood for the trees?
There have been Weiss 7-day sets on the market from time to time but none have had pictures of sufficient resolution to check the lettering styles.Name:  Weiss image.jpg
