1954 Gillette TV Superspeed
Note: This first group of photos is for the 1954 TV Special, which appears in all respects to look like a standard 40's Gillette Superspeed
The Gillette TV superspeed was ONLY made during the year 1954, and 1958 . The 1954 TV Special razor had a Gillette 1940's style Super Speed design, it was a special limited edition re-release promoting the Gillette Cavalcade of Sports . The 1958 version can be discerned from the 60's superspeed
by the lack of banding on the handle.
