It would appear most are W(crown) R (William IV). Interestly, Thomas turner & Co i listed with V crown R and 'cutlers to her majesty'. Time to keep a good eye me thinks.
postmastergeneral, the question by Jimmy was about Rodgers, but not about the makers with Royal Lettering and crowns stamps.

Alex this stub tail Rodgers Cast Steel ..... do you 'know' whether it is a Joseph Rodgers ? IIRC there were other Rodgers making razors that early.
Sorry, replied to the wrong thread
Here's a "Rodgers G(crown)R" stub tail that I recently finished restoring and is posted in the Restoration Sub-Forum:

First, I think this is a quite relevant thread: http://straightrazorpalace.com/razor...-warrants.html
And second, here's two of mine. Joseph Rodgers, Cutlers to their majesties, VR:
Attachment 149021
and George Rodgers VR:
Attachment 149022
I've a wee Harrison Brothers & Howson with VR stamped and the Joseph Rogers I had also had it if I remember. Warrants on goods tend to move around different manufacturers from monarch to monarch, queen mother, prince of Wales etc. All can dish out warrants.
What about ROGERS? (no D)
I have a Joseph Rodgers stamped WR 'cutlers to Their majesties'
