LIST *ALL* YOUR D.E. RAZORS!

Thanks yes I've been looking for a Gillette slim adjustable preferably the 1966-68 L2 but can't seem to find any in top condition for a reasonable price
It's definitely a hunt, especially if you want a specific code (L2). If you look long enough you'll eventually find it. It'll be easier if you are open to more than just one date code, though.

I got my Slim for around $20 on the 'bay. Good condition, great working order... Just took some watching.

Good luck!

Perhaps you are right the code isn't that important the condition is though
 
Just one - Tatara Masamune

My vintage Gillettes. A 1958 UK set #70, a 1961 Fatboy, and a 1957 Red Tip Superspeed.

Very very nice sir! - Can you show some pics of the side of the shipper for the Aristocrat? Does it say #70 on the shipper or?

I could be wrong, but in the photo the case looks more like a #66 set case with green felt. The #70 case has blue felt and also another imprint logo in the lid?

The razor could be nickel or rhodium, I cannot tell. But no matter what this is a great condition set, whether it being #66 or #70. One of the best shavers and lookers there is. Enjoy :001_tt1:

Thanks!
