Gifted Blue Tip SS and Something Pink?

[ramsa]

You gotta love it when a co-worker thinks to give you a couple decent D.E. razors from his parents estate...
I recognized the Super Speed... (NDC and aluminum handle)

The long handle with pink paint? No clue...
Any ideas?

Lady Gillette Starburst. Marketed for the ladies. I have one in blue. Wonderful shaver.

You have nice co-workers.

As noted. A Lady Gillette. Long handles are easier for ladies to manage.

The pink is the least common color. Very nice gift from your co-worker. Clean those up and put 'em to work!

Thanks! I figured with the color and star design it was for the ladies.
My supply of Supers just about doubled.
Looks like they will both clean up well.
Got to love these vintage Gillettes!
(And B&B...)

Very nice score,you've got nice co-workers. As stated by others, the pink one is a Ladies Starburst and pink is a bit harder to come by. They also provide great shaves. Here is a picture of mine. Light blue, pink, champagne, and blue.

If you polish the lady gillette with polish, mask off the anodized knurling. The polish won't treat that very kindly.

Soaked in Scrubbing Bubbles last night, and both cleaned up really nice.
The Super Speed is a 1955, and the Lady is a 1965. Gunk was covering the date stamps...
Thanks!
