Greetings All! I just received a Gillette Tech/ Made In England today. The American lady who sold it to me claims it was found in her father's military bag- but had no idea of the story behind it. It came in what definitely appeared to be the original cellophane (which was turning brown and rapidly crumbling) and a red plastic container- seemingly unopened...I have looked through many a thread and photos here regarding the Techs and didn't stumble upon any handles quite like this one- it appears to my untrained self to be made of a very light aluminum maybe? I attached some photos- if anyone has any info I would love to hear it. The one pic is of the English handle on the left- compared to a US-made pre-war Tech I purchased previously.
It appears to be in mint condition and I'm very pleased to have it- just curious about the handle and what time frame anyone thinks it might have been manufactured. Thanks!
