Here is a nice Khaki Set I picked up, on the bottom it has a name and 1942 written on the box. Ser# G 76151
Its hard to read the name, here is a few more shots of it. It looks like the first letter is S or J, then the next letter could be O or maybe AAnd it is signed F. Lamas!
Fernando Lamas could have shaven with it!!

I have one of these as well and finally took it out to shave with this morning. It's a hell of a shave, but it takes some effort to get the blade to line up correctly. Do shims eliminate this problem?
Shims do not eliminate this problem, they just provide more blade gap. You will still have to align the blade. I found (for me) the Old style works better w/out shims. YMMV.
I have two Old Types and have never had a problem with blade alignment
Is it only certain razors or a wear issue? Mine lines up just like a Tech or NEW.
