SIRaMa Siemens Electric DE razor 1933

[audionics]

Just aquired this out of curiosity.

An electric DE razor for wet shaving from 1933 made by Siemens.

Anybody knows this?

Would you use it in the shower?

 

[audionics]

Yup Battery operated. hahaha

Very interesting! Thanks for sharing.

I didn't realize someone thought to make an electric safety razor, but I suppose I should have thought of that given the battery-powered cartridge razors Gillette sells. Intriguing find!

I ran across one of those back when I was only buying razors that I could use, so I left it. Looking back now, I wish I would have bought it for the novelty.

I have a Stahly Live Blade, I wonder if it works like that?

And 1933!

How modern!

Does it vibrate? Curious about what it was (is) supposed to do.

That's pretty wild! Hopefully, someone on here will know a more bit about it.

Wow! What a nifty piece indeed! It has a Rube Goldberg appeal about it. Probably has European voltage. I wouldn't want to have a wet face when that gets a short. It is awfully cool though
