1.Diamondine , NABSCO B.S.Co., 134 6th street , Pittsburg, Pa.*Possible ??
Place "diamondine" into key word search in "Advanced" search feature on SRP. for some threads, there are several.


2.The J.R. Torrey Co", Worcester, Massachusetts existed 1858 - 1963.
The Joseph R.Torrey Razor Company was founded in 1858 to make razor strops,
and to sell straight razors. In 1880, they started manufacturing razors.
The razors they had dealt in prior to this were inported from Sweden and England.
