A Lightweight Apollo Safety Bar DE

This is a gold anodized 2 piece safety bar Apollo razor fabricated in aluminum. I think this is a very unusual material for an Apollo razor which are usually quite heavy plated zinc alloy or brass. The razor does have a nickel plated cap in either brass or zinc. From a design standpoint the razor is from the 1930's and appears very lightly used with storage abrasion apparent on the box. The condition of the box would seem to date the razor to the 1930s. It weighs 39 grams and is a beautiful two tone collectable Apollo. I have no idea what model number this would be. It shaves like a dream.

That is one cool and rare razor. Thanks for posting the photos. Never saw an Apollo that resembled that one. Great score!

Beautiful. You know, I've never seen an Apollo razor that wasn't really something to look at. They sure did make some great razors.
