I just scored three nice brushes on the 'Bay: an off white Ever Ready, a red Erskine that I have a question about but I'll ask in another post, and a black and ,for lack of better description, mottled gold/yellow unknown brand. That's the one I have questions about for ID. The brush is a screw-apart and it looks like the handle was used to hold some shaving cream (maybe). There is an obvious parting line on the black portion. I find absolutely no identifying marks anywhere.
Two questions about this brush? (1) Does anyone know who may have made it and when? and (2) If you were restoring this brush, would you leave the parting lines or sand/polish them down? I'm inclined to leave them alone ... they have a certain character that I like. Your opinons are requested!
