+1.......Quite true...it's not like Gillette has a company museum, or really even cares about there own history. It's almost as if even acknowledging their former products makes them scared nobody will want to shave with canned goop tolerate expensive, multi-bladed cartridges.
It appears that the #22 and #66 are the same razors. Achim, do you have any idea why the razor carried two different number designations?
Also, it looks like the Rocket 500 HD DR had an additional designation - the #59.

very nice, but yours looks like a New Improved
Great stuff! Thanks for sharing.
I have to take the time to look at this after class, this is really great stuff!Nope, Old Type. Serial number dates it to 1921, so I guess it's a 102A, the last of the Old types.
