Title: model blade company new york
Post by: Carlotta on October 26, 2008, 01:28:43 PM

I don't know if I can post the images, they are nudes..
a small box containing 4 individually wrapped razor blades.
The box itself has two nude pin ups.  Each blade is wrapped in paper and then again in a full colour nude pin up...I rememer finding them in my dads dresser when I was a kid and that was in the 50's.
Can't find any info on them..They are in mint condition, the box a bit tattered, but the blades not even opened.  Any info as to value or anything would be great.
If it is ok to post them I will. 
I also have quite a few Florida post cards with pin ups..one by Bunny Yaeger..
thanks,
Carlotta

If the nudes/pinups are an original part of the advertising and not pornographic or illegal by today's standards, I don't see a problem in posting pictures of the razor blade box.

these would be considered rare. average values for blade's are $ 5.00 to $ 30.00 dollars. these should easely reach $50.00 dollars or more for the pack.
