Yup. I always look at the adjustment dial, which on a Slim has a conical shoulder at the bottom. It's the most visible giveaway when there's only the one razor.And comparing the adjuster dial with pictures, this looks like a Fatboy, rather than a Slim.

Strangely enough, I've been seeing a lot of Slims labeled as Fat Boys on eBay. Just the opposite situation. Maybe they think of the Fat Boys as being older, therefore more valuable to a collector. I don't even bother trying to correct them.
I've never been one to "shop" for things, but you guys know this means I'm going to have to go to every antique store and flea market in the area now, right? Somewhere around here might be a nice late 40's Aristocrat for twenty bucks.
