Gellette's available in 1965

[Stubborn Dutchman]

I wish I could remember what model I purchased that went off to boot camp with me in the fall of 1965. I'm sure it was a twist to open type, non-adjustable, and no plastic(all shine metal) It was probably purchased at one of the local drug stores or possibly KMart (way before WalMart!)

I really don't recall there being any difficulty in mastering it, even tho I only remember buying the cheap blue blades. I'm sure I got multiple shaves out of those blades. I was just as cheap about things back then as I am now. I sure wish I still had that razor! But this 17 year old was even dumber than I am now.

Any ideas as to what it may have been?

Thanks,

Don

There's a date code on the bottom if you still have it. You may also see it in the reviews section under razors.

It was almost certainly a Super Speed.

I was thinking the same, probably a flare tip.
