Does the blade gap at 0:38 appear noticeably uneven to anyone else?

Nice ad from the year I was born in!!

It does, but it could be due to the point of view?

[fonkemonkey]

Yeah, my guess would be "forced perspective".

[Dalejr]

Gillette should pull those adds unless they are actually willing to sell me one, :lol:

[Jorocom]

Wow, what used to be...

Cool, my birth year as well. To my eyes the gap looks off, but I agree, hard to know for sure.

My question is: were the blue Gillette blades that good that you could move the razor that fast and get that perfect shave?

[DunEdinRanger]

Wow. 50 Shillings!! How much does a Fusion cost these days in relation to that?

Darn, now I'm going to have to go get a Blue Blade dispenser and load it up with Med Preps and Yellows and Feathers. I like the way that loads.
