Sad story, Good find.........
I don't know how to "sugar-coat" this, so I'll just tell it like it is........
My Sister-in-law's Brother went "toes-up" recently......and he was a barber !
Now I'M an undertaker, (so I know when to shut-up & be sensitive), But the fact remains that I was hoping for some "goodies"......(that he obviously wouldn't need anymore).
My Brother came through !..........
I live in Florida, but the death happened in Detroit, so I couldn't make the trip. My Brother however HAD to go, (after all, it's his Brother-in-law).
Long story short........Four razors:
2 (two) - Temprite #25
1 (one) - Red Imp .....(maybe a CaseŽ) ?
1 (one) - Red Imp......(says something like: Ludo & Sher Razorworks....Solingen......) something like that ?
I would assume there's a load of great stuff, like hot-lather machines, strops, hones, hot-towel steamers, maybe even a genuine barbers chair !...........
We'll See ! ! !............
