1. Congrats on the haul.
    I've always liked the look of it. I keep my eyes out for one when I'm eBay . But never really found a nice one for a decent price.

  5. I wasn't planning on buying these, but this gentlemen convinced me to buy.. it didn't take much convincing. I originally only wanted a couple of gibbs blade banks. Which look like this..

    1x Stirling Glacial Obsidian SS Jar
    1x Stirling Glacial Black Cherry SS Jar (last one until next year!)

  14. Hello,-

    What you are looking at is what I believe is a 1906 Traveller set. The serial number on the inner barrel starts with a G, but due to the fact that the case has a script logo, and the facts that there are no markings on the top or bottom of the comb guard, and that the serial number is on the inner barrel and not the top of the comb guard, as it would have been if it were a G series 1916 razor, all adds up to an early Single Ring. The G designator is the indicator used at the time of manufacture of gold plating. So, what I have coming to me is, I believe a 1906 Gillette gold Traveller set. Too bad the blade safes are not there. But still a great discovery! Thanks for checking it out. Have a great day all!

  16. Thank you Jorge! I have been wanting an other 1906 Single Ring for a while now. I think I PIFed my other one. The fact that it is gold is a huge bonus. There are very few gold ones in existence. Plus I love the gold plated Gillette's. Have a good day, Jorge!

  20. Those are so cool! I couldn't resist them either a year or so ago. They polish up wonderfully too. Congrats!
