I like it—especially the colors—and the type choice intrigues me. I think it’s Archer, which is like a more interesting Neutraface Slab to me. Thought it was beer at first, but I guess people can have their coffee.

Picked up this safety razor from Antika down on Greenwood & 85th this past weekend. Not sure when it was made, but judging from the Bakelite and packaging, probably early 50s, late 40s? Made in Sheffield by Thomas Ward & Sons, Ltd. (And ha, I didn’t cut myself when I used it for the first time.) There were a couple (Bakelite) tortoiseshell razors too, but this one had its original package. Which is awesome.

Thanks to Hanna for camera/photos.
