May seem like a little or dumb thing to some but I have wanted one of these for a long time. I saw one in an antique store and had the "got to have it"s.

Very cool box. What do you think the big slot is for?
My guess is a barber hone. I can't imagine a strip would fit in that slot. It is supposed to be a "barber box"
Combs most likely
Combs. Thanks a possibility.
I saw one listed on some auction site and they said something to the effect of "slots for 15 razors and a barber hone," but that may have just been their guess. That's what I took it to be at least. Probably just general storage, whatever you wanted to put in there. Funny, when I first saw this thing in an antique shop I had just started looking at razors and I thought I'll never have enough razors to fill that thing. Now I'll be lucky if my regular rotation razors will fit in there. That's my plan for it at least.
I have never seen one in hand, only on the auction sights. I am curious if the razor fit in there easily in their original boxes. They have piqued my curiosity for a while.
Neat! Scissors, etc?
A. Witte of New York!
Perhaps some of those cloth sleeves for the razors?
That is unusual. I've never seen one of these. But it is nice!
