I'm not really sure what this is, but at some point it found its way into my collection. I recently decided I am more of a user, and a straight user at that, so all of the old stuff I don't use has got to go.
The case itself is in very sound shape with the finish on the outside only cracked with no peeling anywhere. The hinge functions very well, holds the case open no problem. The interior is redder than the pictures show, some sort of felt maybe, with a Gillette diamond on the back. There is a slot to hold a package of blades, but the blade holder itself is missing. The interior is a little rough, but still looks pretty good.
The razor is in good condition, the bay doors open up perfectly without any squeak and the knob turns smoothly in both directions. There is only minimal plate loss around the head of the razor, and none at all on the handle. The sort of funky red/orange stuff on the handle has been cleaned off, leaving the entire razor a nice gold color.

Hopefully one of the experts here can chime in and let us all know what it really is and what it is worth, but for now I am putting the price at $30
