    Default Frankenrazor or not ?

    Not my normal criteria, but so cheap I had to rescue it

    Now I know I've seen this sort of handle before but can't remember where.

    Gillette - Made in England.

    Is this a frankenrazor with a Gillette head or a fully Gillette razor ??



    EDIT:
    Woops, should have looked harder in "the Bible" ( www.mr-razor.com )

    Ahh, thanks Achim

    That actually makes more sense, as mine doesn't have the lines around the handle like the two I quoted. I also believe that the #26 might have been Australia ( from somewhere or something I've read sometime.... ..... )

    Wonder where the box is ???

    Tom, I would but it's a bit hard to post to "undisclosed locations"

    Ian,

    Shoot it up to me, we have lots of records here in Canberra and may be able to track down 'Undisclosed location'

    Nice score, again, mate....

    I have not had the pleasure of visiting Australia, but from what I gather, it’s a probably got more than a few addresses…….too much guess work for me.

    Oh well, some things are just not meant to be….

    Congrats on the razor....
