I have owned this Century Set Bakelite travel brush for years and was wondering if anyone could tell me when it was manufactured. I'm thinking 1930s or 1940s, but that's just a guess on my part. Thanks.
Does anyone have an idea when this brush was made?

If not painted, I'd guess it would take a lot of work to pour all those layers. No wonder why most brushes just have swirl patterns.
Congrats!

Never heard of them or never seen one before. A beautiful brush and thanks for sharing it with us.
Refering to a Century Set brush: "Leopold Ascher Brush Corp. of New York, NY was in business from 1888 to 1989 and manufactured several popular lines of shaving brushes including Century and Strong Set."

No, that was just an example and it had information. There were a number of other sites with the same information. I just picked one.
