I saw this razor on ebay and am really perplexed by the serial number that is has: 072657Y. I have never seen a "Y" as part of a serial number. Has any body else seen this before?
Gillette New Improved "Made in England" w/odd serial number?
- Thread starter **Bingo_Bob**
- Start date
Y indicates made in England
"1()-863912() where () is Y=England, W=France, Z=Canada, V=Spain starting in 1921" ( stolen from Oldguy who posted in one of my posts here )

Y = why
why did we decide we had to code the country into the serial number when it's stamped in English on the other side?

Hope you got it. I really love my NewImproved. It is a hefty weight razor and a really good shaver.
Mine has lots of plate loss, but I luv her just the same.
