My uncles DE
I found my uncles old Gillette today. I will get some pictures posted if I can (I think I'll be better at wet shaving than posting pics). I would like to use it, but thought I'd ask for any restoration tips, cleaning, oiling or whatever. It is in pretty good condition. Hasn't been used for probably 20 years at least. It is gold colored with a knurled handle (duh), the case is faux brown turtle with a satiny paisly liner. Has the Gillette logo in the inside of the lid with "MILORD" below. That is the only clue I have to the model designation. The gold is worn along the leading edges, the moving parts seem pretty smooth. Any suggestions on getting it in use, or if I should shelve it as a keepsake, would be appreciated, as well as to what I might have.
