WOW....you done good my man...you done good.... So how does that 1924 shave...Looks simply gorgeous......and that E2 looks gorgeous....and that ER handle looks gorgeous.....ha,ha,ha..... I guess that ER handle does look like a good candidate for a restore.....Thats an understatment....she's flipping beautiful.....Thats one of those life defining brush handles...(candidate for desert island brush)....or at least shave defining..... I see why you referenced HT when thinking of it's future...Now whenever I see a beautiful ER brush handle looking for a restore I think of Tom and his Grandson too...they set the bar pretty high didn't they... ....and I am very partial to ER brush handles... Enders....you don't see those everyday....I've never even held one....a nos piece of shave history... Congrats on the Great Weekend....now more pics and let us know the fate of these items...how they shaved etc, etc,etc....

I have a 1924 "Shovelhead" that is in a NOS cabinet set (pics here: www.theoriginalsafetytoo.com/thread/776/last-weeks-haul) but I have never shaved with one. This '24 is tiny; and I am not sure if my fat fingers can deal with the small handle, but I will find out. Of course, the E2 will have a shot, when I am done with the 1914 Little LC.

I'm amazed at all the items you gents find in the wild. That tiny '24 is amazing.
IMO the '24 is one fantastic razor.

That is an outstanding haul! I can't wait to see the ER 150 after it's been restored.

Very, very nice. That looks like an exciting haul! It must have been fun! (And, shhhhhh, but kudos to the wife!). : ) My wife has a great knack for finding the deals. For my birthday, she gave me a very nice Bulldog set from the other company who we cannot mention. She virtually stole it from the shop's owner. He blue eyes and wide smile always wins the day. Yesterday we celebrated our 31st wedding anniversary. I can definitely say I married above my pay grade. She is so much better than I deserve.
