1881 Erik Anton Berg
Check out the cool early E. A. Berg razor I just landed. Looks a 6/8 with a gold back! Hope she hums in the shave.

Nice looking frameback. Are you planning on a full restore?

congrats x. somebody showed it to me earlier as they thought i'd like it (which i did, but showed self restraint). it seems the yellow tint on the back is just a reflection, though.
nice price too.

Well it doesn't look like there's very far to go, but I'm not planning on sanding the blade. Metal polish is all I'm hoping for. We'll see when it arrives. Honestly, it has a nice smile and a good width and is in decent condition. If it shaves as well as my other Eskeltuna, I've got a great shaver arriving in the mail soon.

I think they all have 1881 on them. They won a gold medal that year.

Looks smaller than 6/8 to me.
