That is some neat advertising! Interesting about the "curve" claims. True, IMHO!
Whomever was grinding those blades was good at it!
One more for good measure!

They're both from my 'to be restored' pile. The one in the hodgepodge horn scales with the third pin (and 4th pin hole) came to me in busted C-Mon scales. The ones it's in are the only spare scales I had that it kind of fit. It's a hair shy of 7/8. Righteous spike on that baby, too! It hadn't ever been honed when I got it.
I'd just completely forgotten about them. They got mentally lumped in with the Peter J. Michels and the Shapleigh and all those other American brands manufactured in Germany.
Did I ever mention that I have a lot of razors?
Oh My! Looks like we have arrived at Geneva/Genco! :D
America's most prolific maker!
