That is one interesting article. Five blades for less than a buck . . . such a deal, yes sir, such a deal.

Interesting to note that while the article discussed all the major manufacturers blades, the picture showed a Gillette adjustable . . . probably the best and most "top of the line" razor available at that time!

Interesting story. Too bad all the blade manufacturers quit DE manufacture just when they were reaching such heights.
