Here is a 1921-1928 Gold Old Type Set I once owned. Hope you enjoy the photos.
Finding a set in this condition and better has certainly gotten much harder than when I began looking for them. Sadly, when the owner passes away I believe shaving items are some of the first things to go in the trash. They are then lost ever.I still find it amazing that razors this old can still be found in this condition - especially the cases.
I will admit that I don't like shaving with a Old Type - for me it requires too much attention and careful shaving. They are just 1 or 2 evolutions above a wedge style safety razor.

Absolutely amazing!Yes, it seems unbelievable for an object a century old. Imagine my surprise when I recently saw on sale this NOS 1918 Standard Set
