Hard to believe that no one here knows where to get these apart from the auction where it cost arm and leg.
Sorry mate, I have no idea what you're talking about...if you find them, though, let me know!
Sorry here are references of those I heard about.
Henry P. Lummus (1922 December) Old Sheffield Razors Antiques Magazine: Pages 261–267
Henry P. Lummus (1927 May) More Old Razors Antiques Magazine :Pages 372–374
Have you tried contacting a local library? Talk to a librarian, part of their job is to help you find information such as this. These are old articles but there may be a library out there with those issues, and you might be able to get copies of them through interlibrary loan.Quote:

Perhaps easy if you are US based. Here in UK it is different story all together.
How aout trying the British Library? Give them a call -- if they don't have something, then you probably won't find it anywhere.
Already working on it.
I'm not sure if this is the correct Antiques Magazine reference or not, bit I located this information from the Library of Congress card catalog website:

You may be able to order copies of the pages you want from the LoC, though I don't know how much copies of the film/fiche may cost.
Just a thought.
