The "Jerry Reichard Glass Topped, Counter Top Razor Displayer". Popular legend says that model went to 11.
I have no idea what that meant. I can't find a darn thing on this. I'm thinking the answer is too obvious for me to find at this point, or just a trick by Dave to make me loose sleep

OK, I'm too tired to play any longer. Good luck to all.

How about "The Silent Salesman" circa 1905. It was comprised of 2 sets of #1, 2 sets of #2, 1 set of #3 and 1 set of #4 Gems. Three extra blades as well and was offered for $20 at wholesale cost. The retail value of the merchandise inside the case was $37.
