I managed to get this nice set from ebay this week.

its not a complete set, one razor is missing, but a replacement has been added (Its the Joseph Rodgers, barber notch shown in the last 2 pics, handle wise is a good match.

The set has Joseph Last printed on the inside, from what I can get from google he was a case maker (Vanity case's etc...)
The main razors have Penhaligon 33 St James Street etched on the blade (The razor show is the worst conditioned one of the six, so it looks like it was never used, so how one razor went missing I dont know.
The only other markings is Express and Ground in sheffield, I'm assuming this was made for Penhaligon's if any one has any info please share, thanks for your time

I'm a sucker for earth tones and I love the simplicity of that leather roll. Oh and the razors are nice too :w

Congratulations on the acquisition. You may want to post a WTB to start running your needed blade to ground. Those will no doubt restore perfectly. The carrying wrap looks like mint. Enjoy!
