I feel a need to start a new thread to gather information about the period of transition, from manufacture by the American Button Company to the manufacture by Gillette of the Pocket Edition sets. Roughly from 1915 to 1918. There is still much information to be learned about this interesting period in Gillette history.... most is still merely assumption.
Please show, tell, and let's learn.....
I will start the ball rolling with these pictures of my latest addition. It is a smooth bottom Gold Empire case, model 504B,
with four rivets. Gold ball end razor, with serial number D311733, dating to 1916. It has the large Gillette Diamond and Arrow on the comb/guard's bottom right.
