1st up is a 40s style Y-3 date code. Plating is excellent with some fine scratches and tiny nicks in the top but no brassing visible.

Next up is a typical 50s Flair Tip Z-2 date code. Plating is excellent with some fine scratches on the top. There is a spot on the handle, visible in the photo below, where there is brass showing through on one of the lengthwise lines between the knurling in the second row down from the top.

3rd is a Blue Tip B-1 date code. There is a bit of enamal wear on the tip around the bottom edge and a few spots here and there on the knob visible in the photos below. Plating on the head is good with no brassing BUT there are fine spots of discoloration in the plating on the doors and safety bars visible in the above photo of the trio on their heads.

These razors are offered at $15 each shipped USPS 1st class w/tracking CONUS.

Up last is what I call the Mild-to-Wild Combo. This is a cosmetically challenged, but functionally fine, undated Ball End Tech bundled with gold plated OLD Type head. I will mostly let the pictures speak for themselves on this one. Both heads fit the handle fine. There is some wear on the corners of the OLD cap but the comb teeth are straight and even.

Thanks for looking Gents.
