All in all I got 11 reasonably problem free razors. I also have about as many chipped beyond and cracked razors.

All in all I think this has been one of the best "Lots" I've scored. The pics don't show it well enough but that E J EYRE &Co, Late Greaves & Sons, is one heck of a nice razor. Hope the palm tree and stuff survives a light clean up
The old fart only has 2 letters readable, I tried to get a close up incase someone recognizes it, "ER" and the top of 2 letters right under it, flat top font but no clue what it could be. A quick cleaning and this will be a shaver

That ER one sure is cool looking. The scales look like a random branch the guy found laying around that he slapped on there from the pictures. Please post pics when it's cleaned up!
Congrats on the score.
Oh, and do you know why the maker stamped TESTED in that one razor?

The "Tested XX" razor has what looks like "Case Brothers Cutlery Little Vally NY" photo etched on the tang, very faintly I may add... "Gates & Hillier" etched on the blade, shout survive it seems deep enough

Ancient to vintage nice scores! I liked the Greaves and the BJ Eyre-have a weakness for them and they shave well. The twisted rope Extra Hollow Gound looks Bokerish-what is stamped on the tang? Congratulations.
