Razor ID?

[Archerfire]

A friend's father has an older razor that we haven't been able to see up close and personal yet. We think it may be an Aristocrat, but really... we dunno! We are curious if anyone may know for sure based on this brief description as related over the phone:

Silver, Silo doors, twist to open, adjustable 1-9, a diamond shaped H on one side of the handle and a 3 on the other side.

Is that enough info to give someone an idea? Thanks in advance for any enlightenment!

Slim adjustable. 1962

From your description, it would most likely be a Fatboy or a Slim Adjustable.

( See my sig for details about the physical differences....blatant self promotion )

The "giveaway" is the H3.

Have a look at the dating wiki entry here:
http://wiki.badgerandblade.com/index.php/US_Gillette_Dating_Information

So from that it is most likely a Slim Adjustable manufactured 1962 ( H ) in the 3rd quarter (3 ) ....

But of course till we see piccies it doesn't actually exist and we can't give 100% postive ID
