    Cool and interesting. Simplex made razors too of which that looks like a Simplex case, so they were issued Gillette and Simplex razors in the same kit? Definitely follow-up with better pics when you receive it!

    I am sure lots of things were mixed together and used in the efforts back then. Not the 1st time we've seen things mixed together by the Government. This is advertised as New Unused and appears that way as well. Doesn't matter to me either way as I wanted the soap mainly.

    I don't recall Simplex razors from the Vietnam era but not my area of expertise.

    Waits says 33-45 for Simplex, I find ads as late as '50.

    Perhaps leftover Simplex cases used to package the Gillette. Guess I'll see when it arrives.

    I think it's cool either way. Just intriguing and has me wanting to see your better pics when you receive the kit.

    Should be date codes on the blades though that won't give anything definitive about the set

    Nice score. That's how I felt when I made a 2.50 offer on that H1 Eversharp injector the other day.

    Ordered a couple brass square tubing to make a couple keys for two Olaf Rasmussen prison razors. I've had them for a couple years decided that I should unlock them so I can use them.
