Cased Matched Pair of G. T. GOCDBEHERP? WARRANTED Straight Razors having a very elaborate pique work pattern of inlaid silver pins on both natural material handles. The pair fitted in lined flat presentation case comes with information on the four generations of owners. The first was Colonel George Corbin Washington. Col. George Corbin Washington was the son of George Washington’s Nephew . I found this article on George Washington’s Telescope: Link: https://www.rockislandauction.com/riac-blog/george-washingtons-telescope
In this article was this quote on how the telescope managed to make it to the museum.
“ From there it was passed on to the nephew’s son, Colonel George Corbin Washington (William’s great grandfather), who in turn passed it to his son, Colonel Lewis William Washington. The affidavit then states that “His widow gave it to their son, William d’Hertburn Washington, who, during his lifetime, sold it to my younger brother, Lewis William Washington… from whom I inherited it.” This is a very nice, ornate pair of razors with an impressive provenance.
