Thread: More about Louper and Elbeco

Greetings,

I hope there are some out there who can fill in the blanks, I have two razors that pose as somewhat of a mystery (probably more to lack of internet search skills)

1. Louper Flamma-select 224 - I have seen others but not this particular one, history and possible value (not selling, would just like to know if I overpaid for it) info would be good.

2. Elbeco C - I found a vague reference to an Elbeco D awhile ago, can't seem to find it again, but it still was very vague as to who manufactured them from where.

tks in advance, cheers

LouPer razors were manufactured by Louis Perlmann, out of Solingen,
Blumenstrasse 91 in 1939, Schlagbaumerstrasse 114 in 1983 (Germany).

ELBECO was a trademark owned by Heinrich Böker & Co, one of the larger razor manufacturing outfits, another Solingen razor.

I tried to send you a PM with additional info, but somehow your account does not accept PMs.

If you wade through the info in the link you may be able to find the makers.
