What's new

Hi Guys Please Have a Look and let me know what yous think!!

You have some fine vintage Gillettes in cases no less. For your next acquisition, might I recommend a late '40's Aristocrat. They are reasonably plentiful and they are great shavers.

Well done, sir! Thanks for sharing!:smile:
 
Very nice! Too nice, in fact, for me.

I've only found a couple in cases so far, and to be honest, I don't think I'll ever go out of my way to get more.

I'd fret about the case and the condition of the razor. If I ever scored a nice 40's SS in a case, all minty fresh, I would probably prance about like Gollum finding the One Ring, and then spend my days in a dark cave worrying about any damage to "My Precious".

There's just a little less pressure involved in shaving with the used but not abused stuff..
