Eclipse with a case I've never seen before

Here is a beautiful early Eclipse razor, before the engraving on the head, but with a kid leather soft case. No blades, but a basically unused razor in a very much handled case. Have you seen this set before?

The distinctive logo & eclipse design on the case cover.

The red ring is very much in evidence as a red ring.

You can see how the finish has held up so well. And that the logo was not yet embossed onto the head. Bright & shiny nonetheless.
I'd never seen this case before & was quite pleased to acquire it. Any others like it out there?
 
:lol:Leave it to Alex to post beautiful pictures of every Eclipse case known to mankind (and a few that he just discovered as well!):lol:

Alex, you are such a font of knowledge--I don't know what we'd all do without you, my friend!:thumbup:
 
B&B's Paul had one last year
full

Yes! THIS is the one I would love to have! Not just any Eclipse but one exactly like this. What a beauty.:001_wub: Thank you Alex for the photo. One day perhaps.

(BTW to the OP of this pic. Nice pic! Just viewed it on my computer. Very nice.)

They are a great collector razor but for me the shave was just average, i sold mine because i am not a collector and my Barbasol shaved better for me.

Well, yes that's my next, to the next, one I want too.:tongue_smBut an Eclipse! I'd have to use one of your fainting vids. Finding something like that in the wild I'd be good for the rest of the year. But having found my Apollo I'm humbled and grateful to have found this razor here in town and has effectively displaced all my other razors since. To me it's the equivalent. :thumbup1:

Jake,
Thank you for your amazing photo shoots. As always, your razors are a beaut. Congrats on another great collection.:thumbup1:

................I saw a few Eclipse go for less than 150 bucks during the summer, sometimes they pop up by the dozen but not the Darwins or Lereshes, they were less made and are more rare and hard to get.
