This is a very uniwque piece. It is for holding combs, razors and brushes in either your home or a baber shop. It is made of pot metal with plastic amber cup to the front for combs. The back has a rack and two plastic cups I assume for the razor and shaving brush. It is then all hand painted except for the red and white pole and the front label. On the back in pencil is the year 1944, I am basing my date on that. The amber cup in front is chipped and has two cracks. Other then minor wear that is all the damage I see. It stands 9" tall by 12" long and 6" deep.
