Here's a page from the April 1911 issue of The Edison Phonograph Monthly that may help date the large wooden-cabinet shavers. (Click on image to enlarge.

Well, I am bit late seeing this it looks like but, wow, that write up seems like it presents the evidence that the front door shavers were the "updated" design in 1911. This is a major asset to the history of these shavers! George, you made my night!
