A CLOSE SHAVE!! 1940's Gillette Safety Razor found (with pics)

[PADDY]

Beautiful NOS Gillette Razor found under a pile of dust in an old second hand shop near to me. I saw the Bakelite Art Deco box and dug further to get it out from underneath a pile of rubbish. Everything was dusty, but after some soapy water and an old stiff tooth brush and some horse clipper oil to take off any rust marks, this is what I had!! hoooraaaa!!

So, any other vintage styled razors out there to show off? roll up-roll up!

Excellent find! What fantastic condition. I use a modern Merkur DESR as well.....it's the only way to go! Congrats!

Wow - it's beautiful!

It reminds of the many times I have seen razors similar to this one on flea-markets without buying them :eusa_doh:
