Awhile back my mother told me some clues in regards to my birthday gift; and I thought I’d start a guessing game with B&B to see who comes closest to guessing what she got me. The clues she gave me were as follows: it’s a vintage British Gillette and it cost her a pretty penny on everybody’s favorite auction website (when she says a pretty penny the price was in the $100+ range). My birthday is December 2nd and once I get my birthday gift I’ll post in this thread what she gave me. Of course I thanked her very much and told her I loved her; so B&B let’s see your guesses.
Let’s play a guessing game

Everready Streamliner 1st or 2nd generation SE razor

Another Aristocrat guess.
RFB is a raised flat bottom New for those uninformed newbies and those of us who don't love abbreviations.

I smell like a Christmas pudding
I will guess a US made Slim Adjustable in a British Mark II set or Queen's Award to Industry set.
What a nice gift ! I would say an Aristocrat #66 coronation set (1953).
Aristocrat #22
THANK you friend!
I'll guess an Aristocrat.
Second choice is a Fatboy, because I always giggle when I type that.
Cased Fatboy?
oOoOO... that is a good one. Might have to change my answer!
Once you go Fat, you never go back!

A #66 Aristocrat would be a great gift; even if it’s not a coronation set.What a nice gift ! I would say an Aristocrat #66 coronation set (1953).

My mother dropped one additional clue as to my birthday razor; she says it’s from the 1950’s according to the seller and has quite a bit of weight to it.
I think you've read your native language too quicky, guys...
If i were you, i'd read Angelo's 1st post once again but more carefully.
Ok then I change my answer to a Slim.
Should’ve went with my first instinct and guessed Aristocrat and asked if his mum wanted to adopt me.
