Just looked up your razor on Waits' Compendium, and found a few interesting tidbits that may help. The first is that Waits' claims there were 6 different heads for the ER Lather Catcher ranging from 1904-1911....and while he shows a picture of your particular one -- the only one with the words "Inventors and Makers", he doesn't come out and say what year that phrase was used. He does seem to say that a circa 1906 razor has Ever Ready (not hyphenated on trade mark) while Ever-Ready is hyphenated on blades. I'm not the best at deciphering Mr. Waits' dating information, so perhaps someone will be able to help, either with another source or decrypting the Compendium. Beautiful razor, sir (Grassy)....congrats!!!
