Hello everybody, I picked up this razor this morning at a yard sale this morning and I need to get it identified.
On the blade itself it reads:
" 'KEEN as is this razor's edge invisible'
Shakespeare, Loves Labor Lost"
On the handle to the blade, it reads:
"George Butler and Co.
Trinity Works
Sheffield
England"
And also has the word "Art" in a circle.
On the other side from the "George Butler and Co..." stuff, it has "No0" stamped in.
The blade itself is 11/16" tall and the top is about 3/16" wide. The blade itself is 3" long.
The case is white, and I was told that it is ivory. Just the case is 5 5/8" long.
I need help because I couldn't find any on the internet that DIDN'T have the day marked in the top of the blade. It has no markings of day.
Also, it's kind of dirty and could use a cleaning, but I don't want to clean it yet. I don't know if razors are like coins where cleaning it kills the value.
Thanks for your time
