Thread: Globusmann Solingen 1960-s - NOS???

Hello, gents!
I am new to SRP and very glad to be with you now.
Let me ask you a question. Today I saw an item on e-bay which is described as razors from the last production of Globusmann of about 1960. I couldn`t find anything about it. Maybe somebody has any info about this razors? Can it be the FAKE? I have a doubt, because I know nothing about Globusmann.
Here is some pics, and thank you in advance.

Why do you think it could be a fake?

Is it because it's a white label razor that is, only has generic 'Solignen' labelling, and no Globusman branding?

From the razor itself, there is no guarantee is is from Globusmann. However, it could very well have been made by them. Maybe it's worth asking the seller how he knows this unbranded blade is from Globusmann stock?

To be honest, I am always hazy about razors from Europe marked as "NOS". Especially when it comes to German razors of 40-s. But it is from 60-s, so I don`t know..
And, as Caydel said, there is no branding on it.

I have no idea about that particular piece.
I have a couple of the Globusmen Gold razors, and they are labeled as such on the blade and tang.

It's a nice looking razor, but based purely on the photos it looks like a generic souvenir from Solingen.

it is not Globusman. In our language we do call it fake.

How can you ID an unbranded razor?

Not actually a fake razor.perhaps a falsehood statement about the maker tho.

This is the way I have always seen them in the past as well. They were always very nice shavers and well worth owning.
