After finding a fatboy every weekend for the last weeks to not find one was a little disappointing. I did grab an additional Lady Gillette to complete the set. A rfb in a aristocrat case was nice as well.

Also a pretty unique case with a missing hinge and glass. Has anyone seen this before? Also suggestions on getting a hinge?

Looks like a couple nice brushes and a strop too! Nice!

I would try a piano hinge. Reasonably lightweight and come in good lengths so you can get the whole edge in one hinge instead of using 2 or 3 door hinges. They are easy enough to cut with a sawzall or cutoff wheel on a dremel as well...

Do you ever sell any of this stuff or just collect it?

Also, I have a picture somewhere of that Gillette display case, in complete form. It was sized for boxed Techs and blades IIRC. I have to search all my archived pics on another drive to find it, but if I do, I'll post it.
I had seen one at an auction but couldnt force myself to bit on it.

Collect (Hoard) for the most part. The challenge for me is finding it at a good price. I paid less than $40 for this haul. I PIF quite a bit of it. Recently gave away a slim, two red tips and a few different super speeds. It would be nice to find someone willing to trade a few pieces for a chubby.

Please oh please find it. I would like to see what it looks like in its glory.

I have more razors than I can use so when they go to good homes I am happy.
