Imperial Razor with aluminum scales
RAD hit me again, As soon as I saw her I knew I was taking her home even though I was not 100% sure, i have not seen very many aluminum scale razors. I don't even know the earliest date of a aluminum razor..
I took some deep breaths and started researching, I soon found out the blade is vintage, but those scales..hmmmmm... They look almost too good....perhaps its just because I had not seen any like it before....it's time to ask the SRP brethren, do you guys have any thoughts?
Regardless I took the gamble and await her arrival.
After the purchase I found out the seller is a 65 year old collector who has hundreds of razors and has been collecting for 40 years, this set my mind at ease. as his other razors are equally nice and vintage, I still hope to get some history about this particular razor soon from him.
I will be crossing my fingers..
