Hi,

Just browsing tradera.com (Swedish ebay equivalent) and bumped to something very strange. Check this out:

http://www.tradera.com/Rakapparater-aldre-Multi-Ras-Bang-Olufsen--auktion_2931_110954770

I was not aware that B&O has ever made electric razors but there seems to be one with B&O logo and everything. This must be very rare B&O item these days...

Best regards,

Mikkis

EDIT:

And this one is nice for the book shelf too:'

EDIT2:

Just googled this (Electric shaver museum with B&O section):

http://www.xs4all.nl/~pedewei/index.htm

So it seems to be genuine B&O object from the 50's. Attencion hardcore collectors.

Bang & Olufsen have made razors in the 40's or 50's. It is a rare genuine B&O product which is also in my collection......

The electric shaver for sale is a SH8U.
A couple of different models were produced and they are all collectors items.

The Tekno bus I believe is home-painted.

B&O took an active part in the fight against the german occupation during WII. They made radios to the resistance groups.

For this the factory was demolished by the germans in the end of the war.

To get some income fast B&O started to make electric razors.

I've seen at least 3 different types of B&O shavers...

Perhaps Lee can post a picture?

I saw one of these on ebay a couple of years and nearly died. Incredible, but the particular item i saw was in rerrible condition.
