My First PIF & It's A Gillette Red Tip

I have been collecting vintage double edge razors since 2012. Something my late wife & I did together. Antiquing & thrifting, so much fun finding treasure’s in the wild. Something I miss doing, as it was our thing to do together. These days I mainly stick to eBay. But I’m looking to broaden my horizons. Change is never easy especially when you're as big as an introvert as I am. My first razor was a 1956 Gillette Flare Tip found in a thrift store, next was a 1953 40s SS it snowballed from there.
Well, enough about my story I want to PIF to the community that has helped me in my journey. I’ll keep it simple…somewhat

This PIF is for anyone into wet shaving
You never owned a Gillette Red Tip
I ask that you do not sell any of the items
If you don’t like it PIF it on TSD
Will let it run till sometime on Sunday Feb 26, 2023
Will use www.random.org
CONUS only

The razor 1955 (A4) Gillette Red Tip:
The bad: Brassing under the head, slight plate loss on handle & a squeak in the TTO.
The good: It’s a Gillette Red Tip




Extras:
A sample of: Chiseled Face Ghost Town Barber
A pack of: Feather Blades

Just say: I’m In & post a pic of one of your favorite musical artist.

Very nice PIF. As I already have two of them, not in.

 

I have a Gillette RedTip. However, I want to say that is a generous PIF.

 

Nice PIF, @Ratpoison
I've owned 3. Not in.

 

I've always wanted one. I'm in.

Hard to narrow down my favorite band, so here are a few:




The Highwaymen

 

Great PIF
I have two or three, not in.

Maybe @sidpost will jump in.



BTW I like a lot of different musicians so I just picked one I've been listening to today.

 

Sounds good send him over

 

Very sorry for your loss. Thank you very much for your generosity. It is indeed a great razor. I have one and am not in, but wanted to recognize your generosity!

 

Thanks for a very generous PIF. I have a Red Tip and love it!

I'm not in, but here are a couple of favorite tunes...





Welcome to TSD, and may your heart be filled with sweet memories of your dear Bride.

 

I only have str8’s. I’m planning on traveling for a couple months and was looking to purchase a de for the trip. So your generous pif popped up.
So definitely one of ma favorite groups- The Traveling Wilburys.

 

Thank you I appreciate it.

 

Thank you & always.

 

Nice Pif, I love my birth year Red Tip. Not in. Good luck!

 

I love the Boston song. .

 

I saw 'em in concert at Freedom Hall in Louisville in 1977 or 78. Tom Petty opened for them. I still enjoy listening to their music.

 

I'm sorry for your loss. It's a very nice and generous PIF, thank you.

I'm in please. I have a CA address.

Good luck to participants.

That's a nice pif. Not in.

 

I always like to say "How is it that a fun-loving, easy-going, good-natured, positive-minded, soft-spoken man like me loves to crank up Boston songs? lol

 

You lucky dog you.

 

My favorite Pettty is "Won't Back Down".
