Since joining here 45 days ago, I have accumulated a modest ( well compared to some of the collections I see some of the newbies with I might even downgrade that to pathetic 
)collection of razors.
Even though I'm into TTO's somehow I've ended up with 4 Techs.
They just seem to be so common around here.
Never shaved with them, never had them out of my storage box, never really intend to shave with them ( though I have got one as my "emergency" razor down at the holiday home )
The last one, my father just gave me tonight so won't be doing anything with that one.
Cause all three are British there's no date stamps on them ( last two are the aluminium handles ) :
Gillette in Diamond with Arrow | Gillette no diamond | Embedded Gillette
Something I noticed though is that they have 3 different logos on the heads. ( Sorry for cr@ppy photo's , couldn't be bothered setting lights up correctly etc.... )
I've sorted into what I'm guessing the age of the logos is............
Does this help me date them ?????
In addition what sort of value are they worth ???
Only the last one comes in a little plastic carry case with a slot for the handle, the head and some razors ( white with clear lid ) and is in mint condition. The other show distinct signs of use and wear as you can see from the head ( though the handles are fine ).
Perhaps if I sell all three I can get myself a new TTO
Any help, greatly appreciated.
