    Default Wiss Razor Catalogs - From 1905 & 1907

    Ladies & Gents,

    I normally spend my time at B&B however I wanted to share some catalogs from Wiss Razors with all of you. Don Wiss a decedent of the Wiss Family gave me permission to post the 1915 Wiss catalog. He again scored another catalog, this time from 1907. I posted both of these on B&B but information like this needs to be open to all users IMHO. I hope the Wiss shavers enjoy and appreciate this information. None of this would have been possibly with out the complete assistance of Don Wiss who was able to track these catalogs down.

    Enjoy!

    That would be a question for Don. I personally wouldn't let a dentist put those in my mouth though LOL.

    Thanks for catalogs.
    Here a lot of info about J. Wiss & Sons Co.
    Info about this company was interesting for me, because in 1969, Wiss company bought H. Boker ...and in 1986 sold it.

    Thank you for the catalogs. Now I can see what I am missing in my collection, most of them. LOL
