Birth Year Razor

Thorsten,

I believe you're looking for a B-1. I'm pretty sure there were Black Beauties then.

 

Mine is a 1941 Ranger Tech. Much too mild for me to use, but I'll keep it just the same.

 

Acquired a Gillette Super Speed from my birth year!

 

I have not done that yet, I need to find a P-3 SS or black beauty.

 

Waiting for my highest-priced eBay buy to arrive... My birth quarter M2 Slim Adjustable.

My recently purchased 1949 Super Speed. It is now being replated by Chris Evatt - Razorplate.com.

 

I have none yet. Eventually I'll get one everything from 2nd quarter of 1963

 

I have my birth year slim handle 2nd one I have owned and just received my adjustable aristocrat back from being replanted so 3slim handles all of them are real good shavers but still just razors they scrape whiskers enjoy them why you have them RAD is a mysterious lady.

 

How 'bout that, I'm also waiting for my birth year/quarter (S2) Super Adjustable to arrive from an ebay seller.

 

I am also into aristocrats is their a " holy grail " for aristocrats?

 

I have two birth year razors I enjoy shaving with: my 1947 Super Speed and my 1947 Aristocrat. No date codes for these guys.

 

Here is a good link. http://www.razorarchive.com/the-history-and-evolution-of-the-us-gillette-aristocrat I would love to have a 1910 fluted. I do have a 34,the first one piece gillette. Love the barber pole handles.

 

Is the aristocrat a more refined razor with the shave it gives?

 

What?! No pics?! Show those beauties!

 

The aristocrats tend to be just gold plated. This one has the same head as the 47 SS. They both shave about the same: really good. The handles are different, and they have a different finish. My aristocrat has some wear on it. I think I will leave it alone though. It still shines up pretty well, and the shave is the main thing.

 

Very Nice "Cackalacky Kid"

 

I apologize for the terrible quality. Edit - A plus is that it was my Gramps.

 

And what year is that beauty?

 

So do I also the early bell Handle in or around 1914 I think
