Recently a good friend of mine gave me a variety of shave stuff she won at a silent auction. Among them was this very small travel razor kit. I think this may be a Gillette travel tech from 1951 but am not 100% sure. Here are some photos. Interesting side note; the shave stick container has a full stick of shave soap.
 
Cool set!
The head looks like a Gillette, from what I can see. The handle may be too, I believe there is an extra piece hiding inside of it though. Gillette made at least a few versions of a 4 piece Tech, but I don't think I've seen a n exact match to yours. The case may or may not be Gillette, I think were made by other companies and added the razors to them. Here's a link to an old thread with some similar examples.

+1! I agree, it looks like part of the handle is either missing or ‘telescoped’ inside the section you have.

My razor in question is indeed a 4 piece razor. The handle has a piece in it that unscrews out. The canister on the left of the razor has a full stick of shave soap in it.
