I recently acquired a Gillette travel razor and the seller threw in an old somewhat grungy razor. Having cleaned it up a little I noticed that it did appear to have the Gillette logo in the diamond and to my surprise a serial number F924192. In looking at the websites that have info on Gillette date codes and serial numbers I think it could be a Gillette Model 102 of 1918 vintage. No military markings. Is my interpretation of the serial number correct?
I can't believe it's that old. I plan to clean it up thoroughly and use it in honor of my grandfather, a WWI veteran.
