    Default SW Ohio razors.

    Gentlemen,

    I was recently contacted by a lady whom I had purchesed some razors from (cr@iglist) and she has aquired more. She lives in the Beavercreek area. I went and looked at them and purchased a few, but could not afford all of them.

    She typically E-b@ys or Cr@iglist in the fall. I asked her if I could try and offer them up to fellow shavers in the area in the meantime. She had no problems with that.

    Some are in fine shape and some have had many years of use. I seen 2 german blades with one being distributed from a Dayton co. and one from a Cincinnati co.. My restoration skills aren't up for those 2 blades, but would have been neat to have had a local name razor.

    P.M. me if you are interested in contacting her. Here is a list of the 16 razors:

    Meehan (M.I. Germany),
    Wm. Elliot & Co. #21 (M.I. Germany)
    C. Friear ERN ( Wald Germany)
    Geneva Cuttlery Corp (Geneva N.York 1903)
    Geo. Wosten Holm & Sons ( Sheffield England)
    Head Barber Genco Razor (Genva N.York)
    Joe's Best National Union B.S. Inc.Cinn Ohio (M.I. Germany)
    F & L Electric Fried Mann & Lauter Jung Co. ,
    Landers-Frary & Clark ( New Britain Conn)
    Summeretts Smarty T.. Summertt Co Dayton Ohio (M.I. Germany)
    Truffciu xx #70, F.P.R.W.-T-138 unpolished Diamond,
    Kalono Spezial - Stahl,
    J.A. Henckels Twin Works #16 ( Solinger Germany)
    No name,
    Dudl Duck special #1 Bres Duck ( Solinger Germany)
    Radim Steel L.B. LTD Montreat The ??? Hllow ground razor Sheffield.

    I can get some pics as well. I must state that I am not affiliated with any of her sales, nor do I gain from them. I just came across some GREAT deals and am hoping to allow others (in the area) to aquire more vintage blades.

    AFAIK she will only be dealing with local pick ups until fall and what is left will be put out on the net. She will give me the posting #'s for me to spread around to those with RAD.

    Thanks,
    Kilowattkid

    P.S. My apoligies to the mods if this is in the wrong place. Since I am not selling I thought here or in general would be proper. Please place where you feel necessary and advise me on my error.

    P.S.S. I will not boast as to purchase deals and other details but I am a proud owner of a DD dwarf (finally got a DD) and a WB meatchopper, a Blue Steel Special, a lovely Schumate and a very clean Simmons Hardware. Pics of those will be forthcoming in a few days.

    You are exactly one of the individuals I was thinking of.

    She actually has 18 razors and put them in 2 groups of 9 each looking between $130 and $150 per group. She would probably break it down into singles and such. I can't really speak for her, but I would guess $20 apiece and less as you bought more. That would have to be between you and her.

    Here are some pics. I took five. I wish I could have given them all a home.

    O.K.

    I hate to see this stuff get pushed off to the wayside and maybe my approach limited potential parties, BUT, is anyone somewhat close to the SW Ohio area interested in any one of these.

    I don't want to see these go to non users and this nice lady thought of me and my bretheren when she purchased them. I want these to go to us and not a dusty shelf collector.

    I do not do paypal and such, but if anyone sees one that suits their needs I will get it and ship it within the CONUS. I don't want to bother her or myself with onesy-twoseys, but I am willing to look into a bulk (very fast monetarily) purchase and will ship to someone willing to give these a home. This is certainly out of my comfort zone, but I want to see us have them and not the "others"

    I know that I am probably in a mods gunsights now for being in the wrong section of the site, but I don't feel right letting these go to who knows where. The only thing I ask in return is shot at the ERN razor for my efforts and collection. I understand my desire comes at a cost as well.

    Let me know. By fall when she decides to Eb@y, I may be in a position to have had them all. Just trying to share, sorry mods if I over stepped.

    Thanks,
