I can't post pics until tomorrow night, but I figured I'd at least throw the question out there.... As best I can tell, a 1906 Gillette Old Type single ring. Serial# M582467, pat date Nov. 15.04. It's in a wood case with a carved Gillette diamond & arrow set inside the lid, and also a matching blade case with 3 of the green wrapped Gillette blades...A bit rough around the edges, but hopefully she'll clean up nice... Quick question - how do I know if it's the 100 or 102 head? According to that one Gillette dating page, it appears that 1906 was the year the head was switched....it also notes a pat date of Jun 06, so would that probably be the change and my razor has the older head?
100 is a double ring, 102 is a single ring. 100 Double ring shown below (from Mr. Razor site) 102 Single ring shown below (again from Mr. Razor's site) The #1 difference is the single vs. double ring at the end of the handle right before the head.
