Jumped at this Rotbart RFB set as I have this exact razor with Chris Evatt for replate. Hence this gorgeous condition case will match beautifully. Intend to resell the razor, it is a marvellous shaver just like it’s Gillette RFB cousins.

Wow - quite a haul!Mail call was a little rowdy today.
Whoa - that's an awesome find!
Just like those Red Tips and I'm hankering for one!Hi Guys,
I'd like to show off my 1st vintage razor. It's a red tipped Gillette super speed from 1956. It was so smooth that it didn't even feel like it was working. I used an Astra blade not Dorco as pictured. View attachment 1091941
Very nice and in super condition!On a lazy Sunday I got lured (yes, blame someone, thats it Peter ) into doubling my L’Essor collection.
One of the most eye pleasing razor designs I ever saw, like the Supreme a hefty, bulky, sturdy and industrial appearance. And even ‘adjustable’ as the sides are asymmetrical defined by the cap. What tipped me over the edge was that it is in awesome condition, almost NOS, and complete with an original (though very basic) Essor branded plastic case.
The razor is marked - like many other French DE razors of the period - with "CSCF", standing for "Chambre syndicale des Couteliers de France" (Union Chamber of the French Cutlers).

What about cleaning this razor and sell the replated one? I think the razor is as good as the case it comes in
Very nice and in super condition!

Beautiful!
I'm not on the hunt for anything, but if I came across a decent deal on a nice one of these...
Perhaps I should move some razors not in use to build up my PayPal account just in case.
I'd say [emoji2]Today was decent.
