Case (inside) for No.58 Set

[ghostknife]

Has anybody ever seen different case design for #58, I've only ever see this type but have come across a different one now. Did they change them for different years or is one special release or something?

I don't have a pic right now but there is no red 'loop' for the razor end and the blade case section is sunken down into the case much further, almost hiding the blades

I haven't seen alot of #58's but the ones with cases have all been the same as the one on the Mr Razor site.

Here 'tis, the section for the blades goes down under razor

Without seeing each without the blade box in, it could be just a case that someone has cut a slot out of. Interesting pick up though.

Oh I've seen it, it's different and made that way. The metal base is a completely different molding and hasn't been modified by anyone. The mystery continues...

Yep, there's two types of cases one with the loop and one without.

How'd you manage to get them to pull the auction and sell it to ya !!!

That´s the switch time: 1955 without loop, 1956 with loop

OH I didn't look there, thanks.

From what I've seen there are two kinds of cases. There is one without the band holding the razor handle and one without. I think there's one as a coronation set also.

But do correct me if I'm wrong. I'm still a newb!
