This particular type of Single Compartment shaving
mug was patented in 1910. The original, and other
types of Single Compartment shaving mugs were not
patented, so far as I have been able to determine. |
Comment: |
This mug, #278, was, presumably, part of a series. As
such, it is somewhat rare. It is a welcome and wonderful part of the collection. |
