Vintage is Possible but unlikely...You appear to have a VDH or Surrey brand (same) Boar Hair Brush that I am sure of.

Okay,sounds good..this will be a keeper/user,since it is my first one..any suggestions on sanitizing it?

I usually lather it with a cheap shaving soap for about ten minutes, give it a good rinse and let it dry.

Lather with dish soap (scrubbing bubbles)....let soak in solution for an hour...wash...lather with a shaving soap...let sit moist all night...rinse and dry.
