Razor identification?

**Windrider** · 10-29-2011, 04:10 PM

Attempting my first restoration from an antique shop and am unable to identify the maker. What I am able to read is:
" Jonathan Gro......?" Under the name is a heart lying on it's side and a muzzle loading pistol. Anyone recognize this?

Thanks for any information you can pass along.

Photos, Please.

Just too faint to be able to capture a photo.

But a photo of the razor would help us to identify...

I imagine it is Jonathan Crookes. Do a search here on SRP and you will find plenty of information on the maker.

Thank you Thesus, it is a Crookes, apparently not all that common. I am anxious to restore it to shaving shape and try it out. Appreciate you help.

Photo please anyway? I love seeing people's new toys.

yeah the heart and pistol stamp gives it away, definitely a crookes.

Does it look like this?

if so then it is a Johathan crookes

Well, at the moment it doesn't look that nice but yes it is the same. Thanks for taking the trouble to take a picture.
