    How does a TV Super Speed differ from a Super Speed?

    tranny Super Speed????:confused:

    Is there anyone with a pic of a TV SS? I have no idea what it looks like. I hope this is not a repeat...

    My information is that this razor was made in 1958 and was a special one year production. My guess is that it will look like either a SS or a Tech.

    This razor is called a TV because it was advertised during the Friday night fights in 1958. Other than having a smoother handle is the same as other super speeds. The TV could also stand for Tone Vintage but I am not sure.

    Right Raf, this picture (poor quality) from an earlier post. 2 versions, very limited production.
    Blue case, early 50's, Red case, 1958. Tom has the one on the right, very nice razor.

    I finally bagged one of these. It's by birth year so I figured I had to have one. Hopefully, I'll see it in a a week or two.

    Cool. Mine is in great shape but the endcaps are missing.

    Same for me. Who needs endcaps anyhow?
