I was going through my boxes looking at some cool old stuff I'd forgotten about, and was reminded of this.
Looks like a tatty old single ring, right?
Well yeah, it is. BUT open the box and you might notice something a bit unusual. Firstly, the Gillette badge is stuck on patch, like on an ABC set. That's odd, but then, look closely and squint your eyes, underneath that is the words Made in England, and the remains of the Australian coat of arms. It's faint, but it's there. The back of the box is a bit different too.
So, what do you think? An England made, Aussie Gillette, with ABC ties? I've never seen another, not even on Achim's site.
