What's new

This was all in ONE BOOTH [VERY PIC HEAVY]

Went on a road trip with my good buddy Harry Snider today (and my two daughters) to an antique mall I have never been to before.

Well.... I can honestly say I have never seen so many razors in one city before, let alone one antique mall - FORGET one SINGLE BOOTH!!

Sorry for the low quality pics - lighting was poor and only had my phone camera.

Sadly, for me as a DE collector I had most of what he had on display - nothing to write home about as far as really rare or special items. I did pick up an absolutely minty cased Fatboy with blade case and instructions for $45.

Overall his DE prices were medium for antiques stores these days. I've found them for much cheaper in these stores in the past, but also alot more. His prices on straights I'm not in a position to judge, but I'd say also on the high side. say $40 for low end to $160 seemed to be the high end.

Harry and I did a quick and dirty count

141 straight razors, 23 DE razors and 12 SE razors.

With no further ado, may I present razor Valhalla....

How much did they want for that chopper in the middle of the last pic of the second to the last post?
 
It was a little bit of visual sensory overload at first. Definitely NOT a place to dip my toe into the SR market. I felt prices were out of line. Badly honed SR's were 75$ or more. They're were many beautiful straights in fantastic condition.
 
i want to go to that antique store. is that a 1918 bell end aristocrat in the picture of the case with the fatboy in it? its so hard to see everything and squinting isnt helping the pictures clear up lol

Unfortunately no it isn't - that case did indeed catch my eye as well and I had them pull it out of the case so I could inspect it. Unfortunately it was just an old type ball end, and the case was missing the lid. I would have taken it in a heartbeat had the lid been there.
