If i remember correctly a G. R. Crown means King George IV 1821-1830. The scales on this razor looks absolutely incredible, but the blade has seen better days.......

Nope. The closest I have is my Tally-Ho which is a Bingham "Late F Fenney". Would be nice to have a real Fenney though...
It was in original condition, faded red, well-worn, but nice.
This was and still is my favorite combination; beautiful, original, and worn.

"Tally-HO" is a British Expressions, used in fox hunting to get the dogs moving, but also other meanings, Fenney used "Tally-Ho" as a Trademark

(sure you can not see the stick) I undertand. The horn scales are carved, not pressed, and has rests of gold coloured in the figures, is this comum? thanks again.

I bet that razor is on the earlier side of the 1821-1830 based on the stub tail. The scales are incredibly beautiful. Surprised if they are carved. I would have assumed pressed but I'm no expert. A very nice collectible.

Yep. Definitely 1821 - 1830. Also the earliest Fred Fenney razor I've seen. Coupled with the magnificent scales, that's one superb catch, Roberto!
