Thanked: 4NON XLL strop CO. NY. / is it Unwin & Rogers / the conundrum
Searching for NON XLL STROP CO.NY. on Google found a post in SRP forum about the trademark ''NON XLL '' granted to UNWIN & ROGERS
in 1838 to 1865 , at which time 1865 Joseph Rogers & Sons took over the trademark . my conundrum begins when i find a picture
perfect match of the strop I own on a known collectors website identifying it as the , '' Perfect Belt Strop # 20 made by none other than
the '' NON XLL Strop CO. of NY. that said , did Joseph Rogers & Sons make strops in or for a customer in NY or did Unwin & Rogers
actually make the strop or was there really a company called NON XLL STROP CO. in NY. this is my conundrum , I believe the collector I speak of has over 1700 pieces in his collection so I trust his judgement to be true and valid .
so the search continues , the commitee in my noggin is having a field day with this .
p.s. I have as yet to find any info on the , '' NON XLL STROP CO. of NY. ''
I do hope I am making sense .
Thanks to all replies in advance .

I had always know non-xll to be a trademark of Joseph Allen. Can you post a picture of the strop and a link to the collectors website?
