Saleroom Find - Eclipse Red Ring

Went to the local agricultural salerooms last week and amongst other things bought a large wooden box of miscellaneous old nails, screws, spanners small tools and lots of junk. When I got home, in a toffee tin amongst some old sewing equipment, to my surprise I found two razors. One is a Red Ring of the type with the silver plated tube handle, and the other one is unnamed but of a good quailty. There was also an old Dubarry bakelite shaving soap pot and a wooden handle shaving brush with hardly any bristles left. In all, I paid £4 for the wooden box and contents.

The Red Ring has a small crack along part of the handle tube so I took it to our jewellery repair shop in town to fix it.

Will post photos of both later.

Hi Toddy,

Congratulations on an excellent score at a ridiculously low price. That is extraordinarily good luck, wish for more!
 
I've ebayed some of the other stuff in the box I don't need already and made about $20 off it so far so quids in! My aim is to make enough from it to fund the repair and replating of the RedRing
