1.1 Inch GB Razor with Maltese Cross & Anchor

**cheetahmeatpheonix** · 12-29-2015, 04:27 AM

Hello All,

I wanted to share my newest acquisition. I won this on ebay while on vacation in the Dominican Republic. Thank god for wi fi...lol. I can't seem to post the pics. The Internet in this resort is craptastic.

The sellers write up/ header was way off. Giving credit to the name on the case and not the info on the razor itself for the ebay description. So that might have kept it off thee radar for some. BUT that wasn't enough to keep it from turning into a bidding nightmare.

So besides the size and age of the razor, the thing that drew me in the most was the combination of marks. All of my GB's have the initials and the anchor. None of them have the cross as well as the other 2 marks, which made it pretty special to me. I think I've seen the combination of cross and GB or GB and anchor here on this site but not all 3 together.

GB's are a bit of an anomaly but anyone else seen one like this before. If you have any information please share. If I'm crazy and the combo of marks is not that uncommon please let me know that too.

Thanks

Hey Grazor
No not yet. Still trying to decide which one to really start with. One day I will get one restored the right way. One day
