    And what should I pay for one? Advertised as woman's gillette.

    That looks like the women's Gillettes I've seen. No idea about price, around $20 tops, I'd think. Maybe it's just the pic, but the ones Ive seen have handles and stars that are a lot more blue.

    That's correct sir..you are shopping in the womens' department...lol.

    I know a few guys who own and enjoy them. Looks similar to a long handle black beauty, but not adjustable. I've seen them with pink and gold stars as well.

    Are you trying to convert mother of Squirrel?

    Lady Gillette TTO; (1961-1975); I've seen $40-50 on the upper end in NOS condition.

    I may try to convert her, but I just happened across one on ebay, for $25.00, no bids and only 2 days left.
    I just wondered if it were worth anything.

    Here is the picture from Ebay. It has box too.

    Looks like it could clean up well. Wish it had a pic of the doors open....gotta see under the hood.

    Case looks clean..no cracks. I say pull the trigger. Set a purchase limit or just watch it, and bid right before it ends.

    Thanks for all of the help. I'll have to wait and see. I was mostly curious about what kind of deal it was and how much it was worth.
    Ya know, get an expensive razor cheap, etc.

    Thanks again for all your help.

    As they all noted... Lady Gillette. Comes in baby blue, pink, and champagne (pale yellow). and, I think, plain ol' silver.

    No. I decided not to. SWMBO said she wouldn't use it and I really didn't have the $$$. So I chose not to. I do think it is a beautiful piece though. Nice find.
