Today I purchased a razor at the Fell's Point Antique Show.  It was made in 1904.  It still uses the same Gillette razor blades they make today, works very well and I have every intent of using it.  The case is a maroon velvet interior that did not show up well on the scan.  The razor itself breaks apart into three pieces in order to insert the blade and it has a small metal case to hold additional blades.  I also was pleased that I negotiated a reduction in the asking price by 25%.  novacula was my brother's handle on AOL.  It is the latin word for Razor.
