Is this a Gillette standard old style

It has no makers name only a serial number RR.PAT No2876.0.This is around the bottom of the handle .On top of the comb head it has E059737
Either way it shaves beautifully ,nice and gentle ...very gentle in fact ,quite similar to my Tech .

As always any help wold be appreciated ,it's always ni€ce to know what things are:001_smile

Richy, This is an Old Type Open Comb from Gillette for sure. The E05 number indicates that it was manufactured in 1918. I am surprised that there is no stamping under the comb plate reading Gillette.

The RR.PAT No2876.0. usually indicates that it is British made.

You my friend are excellent !.

Thank you for idenifying each and every razor I post,I do appreciate it.
I've double checked the razor and there is certainly no Gillette stamp ,as I said though it shaves amazingly well ,a smooth gentle ride ,certainly more forgiving than the Merkur 15c
