I graduated from HS in 1971........... all my shaves are vintage.... but respectfully, I only have one razor that would qualify unless we can really count the Progress... though mine was a Christmas gift from our youngest son last year. I gave him a Progress XL..and he gave me the standard one. I do have my birth year razor... so I know that one qualifies... but I'll have to quietly bow out... we'll be in Bali for most of April... and most of May as well.

I’ll be using one of these for most of my shaves, only mine is silver. It came loaded with my birth year blade!I'm going with a birth year (1953) ball-end tech.

I would love to join you guys in this group, but unfortunately the only vintage thing I own is my face…
I too am old but hunt is for a Gillette Slim like I got as present from my Uncle Sam on 06/30/1965.
Every weekend I hit a garage or estate sale or two looking for a Slim someone one is selling.
No luck today, want to restore & use.
Gillette Slim is one of my dreams of consumption, in addition to Fatboy 58 the year I was born. I will try your great tip and look for it.I too am old but hunt is for a Gillette Slim like I got as present from my Uncle Sam on 06/30/1965.

I have an extra Slim if you want one. I've been thinking of putting it on BST for some time.Gillette Slim is one of my dreams of consumption, in addition to Fatboy 58 the year I was born. I will try your great tip and look for it.
I thank you very much dear friend.
