    Default Wm GREAVES & SONS with new blond horn legs

    Here is a new member of my collection. 1" Wm. Greaves & Sons For Barbers Use
    I recently sent her to Bob Keyes for new scales, being that the old ones were totally thrashed and didnt fit properly. The Greaves was in fabulous condition and was a really great find on the Bay. Bob knocked it out of the park.

    Very cool! Love Greaves - they are equal with Joseph Rodgers as my favorite Sheffield make. Enjoy!
