    That sounds like a Ladies' Gillette (like the one JoAnna was selling a while back.)

    Yep, sounds like a Blue Star Ladies Gillette to me too.

    Very nice razor. Even a few guys have been known to use them.

    Box of Distressed Razors.

    OK, Here are quick pictures of the box of distressed razors I got. Some of them are strictly novelty, some are historical benchmarks, some are plain crap and some have the potential to be put into shave as decent razors. I paid a grand total of $23 for the whole box. If I'm lucky, maybe 3-4 razors will come through fine.

    OK, so that's it. Now to do some research and think about what I'm going to do with some of them. It's a long term project for sure.

    Rich,
    Some decent lookin razors there. I think you will come out with 8-10 good ones. Nice haul for the price.

    If it's the one I think you're looking at, it's a red tip. Picture #12? Or is it the Black Tip Picture #10?

    My Polo 8 landed right on schedule!

    Unfortunately I didn't have enough time at lunch to take a pic. Check back later this evening for some SBAD goodness...

    To celebrate I updated my sig :D

    Gee Rich I don't know, I said the black tip. BLACK TIP, not RED TIP so it would be picture number 10. Number 10 being the one with the BLACK TIP, not the RED TIP. Number 12 being the one with the RED TIP not the BLACK TIP so if you would I will take number 10 the BLACK TIP super speed. :rolleyes:;):rofl

    :p I thought maybe the red didn't show up very well in the #12 photo. I was just double checking in case your computer was color blind. :D
