Hi All

Was wondering if anyone has an idea how old this comb is. It was made by the US company Webster Co (founded in 1894) but its real age I don't know, Size -7.75in

Any comments would be appreciated.

Regards
John

John - post a close up photo of the mark and perhaps we can narrow the date range. Regards, Uncle Vic

Hi Uncle Vic

This is the only photo I can give you as I haven't received the comb from the seller yet.

I bought it on 'impulse' for US$10. I figured it must be worth it Smile

Thanks, John....that's the "newer" mark. I'd peg it as 1940s or 50s. I have a very similar comb by another American maker that is from that era. You did very well price-wise - good eye! Regards, Uncle Vic
