    Got this Gillette box in today. Notice the mis-print of "King" in the King C Gillette signatures. They are both spelled "Knig" instead of "King".

    I always wondered how to spell that word the knights say in Monty Python's Holy Grail. Now I know.

    As I think Mel Brooks said, it's good to be the Knig.

    Could be....

    a fake. Like the fine Rollx watches offered on street corners from time to time. But why the Chinese were making fate Gillette razors 100+ years ago is beyond me??:confused: :happy102

    found another picture from a mis-print box. I´m wondering what razor comes with this box. It looks like a Standard Set from the 1910s. I wish I own this set. :love029

    Hi Achim! Good to see you again!

    Mine has 1910 No. 460 A Standard single ring old type set in it. The serial number on the razor is B414539 but there's no serial number on the bottom of the box.

    I notice yours says PRICE 1 GUINEA where mine says PRICE 5 DOLLARS.
