I acquired this display board full of cello-wrapped thin blades. According to Achim's razor blade gallery Gillette made these at various times over the years. I really don't want to open any of the boxes to get a date code off of a blade as that would seriously devalue the whole thing. Is there any other way to pin this display down to a year?
On the back of every blade box is printed "copyright 1939" but I don't think that would be reliable in the same way that Jan 13, 1920 is printed on all New Standard handles regardless of when it was made.
