There are the occasional "find my birthday razor" or "I did find my birthday razor" posts, but unless my search fu is very weak indeed, I do not think there is an ongoing thread to post photos of everyones' birthday razors in. So, without further ado ...
I originally found a B2 (1956 second quarter) red tip in the plastic box with the instruction sheet but no blades. Later, I found a B3 razor, or third quater 1956, which is where my birthday actually falls (August), so I sold the B2 on the BST. I was looking for the correct blade dispenser which would have come with that packaging, which is a 6-blade Gillette blues with gold trim on the dispenser, I believe. I had to buy a razor I did not want, in a case, to get the blades, but you gotta do what you gotta do! AFAIK this is a correct set for a 1956 Red Tip.
If you have a birthday razor, post some photos in here, we want to see them!
