Found these Winchester razors (and blades?) at the Buffalo Bill Historical Center in Cody, Wyoming a while back (sorry for the poor-quality photo). They have several straight razors, too. Did Winchester manufacture razors, or were they branded by Gem or some other company? Attachments:

.44-40 would be my guess with the large lever ring for wheeling and dealing. Fill your hands you...

Well I am pretty sure I know what shaving brush Mr Wayne would have used with his Winchester!

It would have been interesting had they made a standard .44-40 type blade, and also a .45-70 sort of blade "for when your beard is as ornery as a buffalo".
Those brushes are a great find, RocketMan!
