Shown with 1950s Gillette Tech, pre-war Gillette Tech, and Maggard Slant heads for maximum eyecandy. I got the one in the last image a couple months back but never posted it in this thread.

Three beauties!

Got this 1920s era, restored Gillette Old Type today (head only, shown with a Maggard MR18 handle for your viewing pleasure).

Yesterday came this Gillette Silver tech with triangular holes. I'm looking forward to using it.

I'm not typically a fan of newer razor handles with old heads but those fit together beautifully. Well done!

I thought so too. Looks a bit like the original.

The RR Old Type is a terrific razor. You're going to like it!

Great scores, everyone!

Received a tech I won in a pif last month today. It paired quite nicely with a Gillette nacet. BBS three pass shave. Color me impressed.

I already shaved with it. Nice, I have it soaking in dawn now to try and clean it better.

Took my daughter to a vintage toy store to find a replacement Minnie Mouse, her favorite, and we found this languishing with some beat up junk:

1953-1954 Gillette Rocket HD​

AFTER

It has some plate lost to the bottom of the baseplate, but otherwise it is in pretty good shape. I will likely shave with it in the morning.
