Bosse, I threw this low and slow for you....where is your photo?

Are these really that rare that we only have one page worth?

Sorry, been tied up at work...

IMHO the Aristocrat family should be treated as a whole; the sum is far greater than the individual parts!

IMHO the #16 shaves best of them all. It actually shaves better than it looks!

Thanks Bosse! It not fair though, some of us have broken families

Since this is the #16 parade:

Can't believe the parade is already over. This razor is more elusive than the #15 I suppose.

I've got a pair of #16s, but I'm stuck on Tapa, so my parade float is stuck in the barn.

Well my #16 is stuck in someone else's den. I'm just waiting for them to leave town.

Not sure, IME.

By request of her new owner; B&B Member: Lloydrm ......... His new #16 .......

That's a beautiful example!

Amazing cleaning and fixing job Wishbone!
Can't wait to meet the leyend in person.

It looks even better to the naked eye, believe it or not ......... The spots of brass you can see in the TTO gap and at one end of the centre bar are much more visible in the images because of the lighting and camera settings ......... But they blend in with the surrounding rhodium much better than the pics would suggest. Not a bad looking razor considering it came out of the bag looking like this:

Looks like I have one to add. Should be here in a week.

Congratulations John. Really nice looking #16.

You'll be surprised how fast BA will fly it in, Glen.
Congrats!

I'm in the process of securing a number 16 for myself as we speak. It's a birthday present to myself.

Happy birthday! And great gift.

Make sure you post pictures here!!

Just received a 16 two days ago. The 22 and 66 are supposed to be the same razors but there is definitely a difference in the shaves for me.

Very nice looking. I'm just going to have to stick with my #66 for a while.
