help identifying a razor

Unfortunately before I became in interested in DE shaving my fathers razor was stolen from the nursing home he passed away in. I don't remember much about it as I never paid much attention to it since I was a kid 20+ years ago. here is what i remember about it. It was in a green case, was gold/brass in color, a comb, three piece, there was a blade case in the case as well.

That fits a LOT of razors my friend!

I suggest you look over the great site by Achim,

Cases were often mix matched, so it's going to be nearly impossible to track it by case color.

It may not have even been a Gillette.

Good luck, and if you see something that looks familiar, let us know!!

Yep, tough with this info. Almost sounds like a Khaki Set.

Thanks luvmysuper. I found it, i think, right away under NEW The 1930 . And thank you to everyone else that responded.
 
Hey, sorry to interrupt this thread, but also have a razor which I can't place. I'm pretty sure it's a goodwill, it looks exactly like it, but instead of square depressions in the cap, it has rectangular depressions. For pictures, just see the before/after cleaning thread, page 5. It's made in England, and you'll see all the numbers on it as well.
