    Thank you Mark. There was another member here Weeper Warrior (Jacob) that put me on to the case maker. Don Fortin in Canada was the display case maker.

    Thank you. Gillette was very creative in the Fifties and Sixties especially.

    Wonderful display! Do you have any Gillette Adjustables, that you use for shaving?

    Thank you very much! Yes I do. I have a SA (short), a Fatboy and a Slim that I use on a regular basis.

    I have a SA (long-handle) that I just love to use.

    The Red Dot Fatboy and my SA (short) are my favorite of the Gillette Adjustables.

    You've done well, my friend. So, that is where all the best adjustables have gone.

    Thank you. There was a time there where I was checking ebay three or more times a day so I wouldn't miss anything. :happy068:

    Thanks Ray. There are so many Gillettes and other razors too, so I had to focus on a niche and the Adjustables do it for me. I have seen a collection of Darwins; about 8 or 10 of them and it knocked my socks off.

    I agree about the SA short handle. There is just something about that razor and I can't quite put my finger on it. It's closer to the Slim that it is to the long handled SA, but very different than both of those. It seems to be incapable of giving a bad shave.
