    Well actually about NOS that you can get without still being factory sealed. A date code I-1 Lady Gillette in its case with cardboard insert and blades with user direction factory wrapped in cellophane. This atomic blue beauty opens and closes with ease. I was excited to find this at this morning’s flea market but did not know it was a birth razor until I got home. Recovering from cataract surgery, I need a loupe to see the code. I knew it was a good pick-up, but seeing the “I” turned it into a home run. It will live on as a cabinet queen

    I would call that NOS. Especially with the cardboard insert. I was happy with the one I picked up that still had the instruction booklet, and it wasn't NOS, just good condition.
