There's plenty of info out there for info on identifying our razors that we get from flea markets, estate sales, etc. But when you get back from a productive day at the flea market or second-hand stores with a bag full of razors ($4 each!), wouldn't it be great to ID them before posting? Sometimes, though, you can spend more time searching for IDs than it took to buy the darned things.Below are some helpful links from B&B and its members that should help shorten the ID process. Hopefully other members will add their finds as they come across them.
