nice!

**rxonmymind** · 05-01-2012, 01:57 AM

A beauty. I regret selling mine. One day...

**oldspiceboy** · 05-01-2012, 03:55 AM

Man seeing that razor makes me kinda sad. I have one like this and the gold plating is shot. The doors are pitted pretty bad. Not sure if its salvageable.

Gorgeous Haul!

**whavens** · 05-01-2012, 07:30 AM

That is indeed sweet. I'd love to replicate several of my user grades with nice collectables like that, but for now it will have to wait.

**alex2363** · 05-01-2012, 08:38 AM

wow.......

**mr-razor** · 05-01-2012, 09:07 AM

very nice find! The most Diplomats and Presidents are from 1953. Yours is from 1955 and has the sealed dispenser with the original instruction. Congratulations!

Wow! Look sharp! Feel sharp! Be Sharp! (As the old Gillette commercials used to say.)

Good news for someone, my bro says he isn't going to keep it. Unfortunately I'm not ready for one as nice as that. Looks like it'll. E going to a new home shortly.

**stvince71** · 05-01-2012, 01:33 PM

Nice.

**ERVARGASNY** · 05-01-2012, 01:37 PM

Very Nice, Very Nice, Outer Shipper Box looks Mint, Nice Catch there. Those cost a pretty Penny Nowadays... Especially on The Bay

**dpmtherrien** · 05-01-2012, 02:10 PM

Very nice, congrats on that one.

**BBrad** · 05-01-2012, 02:42 PM

Unreal . . . congrats on a very uncommon and special find!!

Not every day you find a Diplomat . . . from 1955 . . . MINT . . . with case . . . and instructions . . . and shipper . . . and (damn that's outstanding!) . . .

**bakerbarber** · 05-01-2012, 03:34 PM

WoW.

I like how the lacquer gets that kind of sheen to it when it's still minty. Almost shimmers like an insect wing when you turn it under the light. Not something you see every day.
