Il Giudice Henry T. Lummus

[Aldebaran]

Il giudice Henry T. Lummus scrisse due articoli accademici in merito ai rasoi Sheffield, che furono pubblicati all'interno di una rivista d'antiquariato nel 1920.
I suoi scritti sono corredati da foto che ritraggono anche rasoi della sua personale collezione.
Egli li ha catalogati, fornendo informazioni preziose e precise sulla loro storia,i marchi, date di produzione, ecc.
Io ho ampliato queste descrizioni in uno dei database del nostro sito, aggiungendo anche la storia di altri marchi, ispirandomi comunque alla sua impareggiabile eleganza e chiarezza espositiva nello scrivere.
Un sentito grazie da parte mia a quest'uomo,grande storico dei rasoi a mano libera, nonche' stimato giudice.
