How much would you pay for this? Vintage Gillette blades

We can't say, the terms of use are pretty clear on B&B being an appraisal site.
Sorry.
Whether they're any good or not depends on the conditions endured over the many decades of storage.

Ask for the price, if it's not outrageous buy them, they are a nice collector's item.

Looks like a fair price already advertised on the display.

Sorry about that.
I don't trust old blades. It doesn't take a lot of corrosion to take a perfectly smooth blade and turn it into an incredibly uncomfortable shaver.
It says 98 cents for 20, so....
Welcome to B&B, Señor Gringobandito!
That is a nice display item.
But, shaving with any of those vintage carbon steel blades is a death wish!
Take my word on it!

Maybe something to add to a collection but stick to the modern stainless steel blades for your daily shaves.
Yeah, these aren’t for using. This is something to be displayed in a den. And when that is the case, whatever you call throw-away money for such a thing is what it’s worth to you, IMO.
Love to have that hanging in my shaving den!

See if you can find them on EBay if you are looking for a comparable cost. But like previously mentioned, if you think they are cool and the price seems ok to you, buy them!
+1 on that advice. They're carbon blades and while I've been able to track down ones to use in pristine condition, from the looks of the fact they're displayed in the open, odds are very high against them.
