    Default Recent purchase

    Somebody help me out with this. I just got this and know nothing about it.
    It is an army barber's kit i a trunk made by Texas Trunk Company. After doing a little searching i found a little out about them. This one has a ton of safety razor blades as well as one safety razor. It includes all kinds of stuff. Some of it hasn't been opened. What I assume is the shaving tray still has the paper on it.

    I will give more details if anybody wants to know.

    It isn't very old. The original document show 1975. Most everything in it
    shows OSTER. There are 3 total hand shears. Well over 10 different blades
    for the hand shears. It has an electric shear as well.

    Looks like some kind of barber's kit with the clippers and scissors in there. Surprised there isn't a straight. May have been at one time.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    Barber school kit for student made up to look like some kind of military issue.

    It was supposed to have a straight included according to the
    inventory list.

    It has the nsn numbers so I know this is not the case.
