Oh great, now there's another Scott to compete with! :happy102 That is stunning, my friend. :happy096
Wow, that is awesome! What are some of the distinctions of the coronation set to the regular set other than the crown on the outside of the box? I don't think the regular cases have the plastic think over the the top lining, is that correct?
That's a good question Scotty and I really don't know the answer... but my guess is these were sold for a brief time and possibly to introduce a new line of luxury razors by Gillette. The plastic lining in this set is only temporary.. very thin and only in place for purposes of packaging I suppose... nothing the like the hard plastic lining for the Diplomat. Achim is correct (usually is!)... this set is from 1953 and has Patent Pending inside the head. I'm going to post pictures for my #58 Coronation Set now.. Chris (MTGrayling) is either gonna love me or hate me shortly.
