Is there anyway of posting that page from Waits? I dont have it and would like to see that picture..is there any info on the razor? I Googled Le Grelot Hospital but could only find straight razors Unfortunately, my copy of Waits is a copy-protected PDF. I searched another site and found what is purported to be a Le Grelot Hospital (second image in the post): badgerandblade.com/vb/showthread.php/238123-Let-s-see-those-SE-razors?p=3251244&highlight=grelot#post3251244 It's a group shot of a bunch of razors, and is not clear, but maybe the owner could be persuaded to post a better picture for comparison. P.S. Sorry to have to resort to links to the big site, but I'm just trying to help out a fellow SE lover. Ya'll understand, right?

Thanks very much for posting the picture Brian, interesting that the manufacturer is unidentified I would say it is a match to my razor. Found this post on Le Grelot and P. Hospital..note the reference to "Golden Medal" which translates to Medaille D'Or which is on this case straightrazorplace.com/razors/82738-history-p-hospital-cie-le-grelot-thiers-france.htmlMr.Flay..that is quite the thread on B&B.. thats a lot of razor porn...thx Also I would say that Mr Waits is a member here. I really should get a copy of his books Thanks alot guys, really appreciate it!!! Kevin

Guys, the Wait's Compendium is a great resource and I would encourage anybody who enjoys collecting and identifying safety razors to pick up a copy. But: Please do not paste in copyrighted material in the threads. There is a new vendor post theoriginalsafetytoo.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=ven&action=display&thread=557 that has a link to purchase the Compendium. It is really very affordable as well as a terrific resource. I would be lost without my copy. Thanks
