The second part of my October haul arrived today on time.
Two British Made Ever-Ready "Natural Angle" versions of Gem razors, circa late 1940s to 1950s. Scrappy outer packaging but on the inside the contents are in unused NOS condition. On the left the "Featherweight" with Bakelite handle and on the right the all metal "Heavy Flat Top" nicknamed the "G-Bar". Chrome plated stainless steel. Small instruction leaflet from the blade holder which holds 5 blades.

Size comparison. Ever-Ready Patent 1912 at the top. Featherweight in the middle, G_Bar at the bottom. Other side of the instruction leaflet and a modern Gem by Personna blade. Notice the comb of the 1912 has been replaced with Clog-Pruf type slots and a bar on both of the Natural Angle razors. Inscriptions inside both are "Made in Gt Britain Ever-Ready". Both are one piece with the handle rivetted to the head.
