ANTIQUE 1927 ROLLS RAZOR AND DOUBLE STROP KIT IN GREEK KEY DECORATED SILVER PLATED CASE - RARE ITEM
THE FIRST OF ITS KIND THAT I'VE HAD THE CONFUSION OF ENCOUNTERING. CONFUSION DUE TO THE FACT THAT I STRUGGLED A BIT TO FIGURE OUT HOW THE RAZOR AND SHARPENING DEVICES ARE ASSEMBLED AND USED, BUT AFTER A YOUTUBE CLIP :) :) , THE ITEM WAS RAPIDLY ASSEMBLED AND FUNCTIONS PERFECTLY. ALL NECESSARY PARTS ARE PRESENT WITHIN THE SILVER PLATED CASE. THE YOUTUBE LINK IS BELOW, AND ONCE YOU GET THE HANG OF IT, IT'S REALLY QUITE SIMPLE TO OPERATE (The razor....NOT the Youtube clip !!:)
THIS FABULOUS ITEM IS VERY STURDY IN ITS MANUFACTURE AND WOULD NATURALLY HAVE BEEN REFERRED TO AS A "TRAVEL RAZOR KIT" MANUFACTURED IN ENGLAND AND PATENTED, THE SAFETY RAZOR IS ENCASED IN A SILVER PLATED CASE WHICH OPENS WITH THE PUSH OF A BUTTON ON EITHER SIDE. THE SHARPENING STONE AND LEATHER STROP ARE CONVENIENTLY INCLUDED INSIDE THE CASE, WITH A STONE ATTACHED INSIDE THE ONE LID AND THE STROP ATTACHED INSIDE THE OPPOSITE LID. THIS PERMITS EASY HONING AND STROPPING. THE BLADE OF THIS RAZOR IS BEST SHEFFIELD STEEL.
STAMPS/MARKS ETC : THE BLADE IS MARKED - "BEST SHEFFIELD STEEL" ON ONE SIDE AND "ROLLS RAZOR" WITH TWO PATENT NUMBERS. THE CASE IS STAMPED - "ROLLS RAZOR, MADE IN ENGLAND, 1927 Ltd, PATENTED IN ENGLAND AND ABROAD, ENGLISH PATENTS NUMBERS" FOLLOWED BY 7 NUMBERS
LINKS/EXAMPLES ETC : THE 1st LINK IS THE NECESSARY YOUTUBE CLIP
