My Christmas razor

[4ckb]

Merry Christmas to you all. Once a year, on Christmas day, I pull this Gillette short comb out of my collection and shave with it. Based on the box, this razor was given as a company gift 81 years ago. I enjoy the history, both the known and untold, of my vintage collection.

Lovely razor @4ckb .
I have the same, in the same condition and just like you I use it sparingly.
I don't have that neat box though! That certainly adds to the mystique doesn't it?
Who was the razor given to? How did it finally end up in your hands, etc?

Nice looking razor! I conjecture it is very heavy.

No, not at all. The NEW SC is a dainty wee razor to use.
Very light, and gives a great shave.

Beautiful! I've got several junk quality Pre War Fat Handles enroute. One is gold and if it cleans up OK, I'll send it off to Backroads Gold for Chris to replate. You've been an inspiration! That means Ramen Noodles for dinner looms in my future...

Indeed. I actually filled the handle of mine with some #8 bird shot and melted candle wax to give it just a tad bit of heft.
