Thanked: 135Display razors
My wife and I visited the Grand Canyon for New Years (and my b-day). At the hotel we stayed at by the South Rim they had a neat little display of cowboy stuff. There were some razors and shaving stuff that I, of course, found really cool.
I couldn't tell what the razor in the box was but the box says Worchester Razor, Worchester Mass:
I couldn't make out much on the tang of the second razor other than MA and maybe an I. The pictures are not that great (old iphone).
They also had an old brush that I neglected to take a picture of but purportedly from the 1920's and a shaving bowl.

Very cool display.
It's impossible to tell without seeing it, but there were a lot of razors made by the Worcester Razor Co. Being that Worcester is where I was born and raised, I'm pretty fond of all razors made there. There were a few makers there. Torrey, Worcester Razor Co. and Buck Brothers to name a few
The other razor is a Maher & Grosh
Here's mine :
Hope this adds a little light.

Thanked: 135Thanks Pete. I wish they had the other one out of the box. Looks like they were used.

I have examples of those 2. Great steel!
A Worcester makes me wonder what Torrey had to do with them?
Lessee....
Mayher and Grosh seems to come from anywhere. Likely American on these.
