    She also had a really nice Sheffield Masonic razor (non Wade & Butcher) that she had to research more before she could price it

    Nice score Rod! My guess is down on 18th and Central. I've been in there several times with no luck.

    My Rad is under control but HAD continues until I can find an escher.

    This place really was like an antique junk yard. I felt like we were on american pickers. First thing we saw was a late 40's police car, then saw several train cars.. A big tent and antique cars everywhere. While Randy was going through a cabinet, I was wandering around outside checking other out buildings. I saw everything from an airplane motor(with prop) to a rock polisher to a 2 man cross cut saw. This place was wild... Randy thought the mastodon tusk they had was overpriced ...

    Don't know if you call the Zacor Bros. a French point or Irish point, but it is a really handsome blade-congratulations on your trove! The man etched on the blade in picture #3 is Charles Stewart Parnell. Parnell was an Irish nationalist and statesman who led the fight for Irish Home Rule in the 1880's. Here is a link to his bio.
