Went to the Portland Antique Show this weekend and picked up a 1918 Combination Set. Unfortunately the razor was nowhere to be found. There was a random 'no date code' razor in its place and it was in pretty bad shape plating-wise.
I am very happy with the travel brush. It's in really good condition. I hope I can replace the hair and use it soon. Does anyone know what the knot diameter is for this particular handle?
The soap stick container is not as good. I think the years of being in close contact with soaps might have contributed to the eating away of the finish.
The case is in good shape too. The bottom finish is worn down a little where the raised edges come in contact with a surface.
I noticed that the felt on the top section of the case was loose so I pulled it out gently and underneath was a tintype picture of someone's girlfriend/wife! It's amazing to think how long that picture was hidden inside this case. I wonder who it was!
