What's new

Shave gear from my wife's late father

Very nice. I hope you and your wife take comfort from the new lease on life that her father's shaving gear will have.
 
Wow, what an amazing find. At least you know that you and your late father in law could have bonded on such an enjoyable level, the man knew his shave stuff.
 
Very nice to come up with his shave gear . . . he had good taste!!

The razor you identify as an Old Type looks to be an early-edition NEW, which came in an OT Pocket case and featured the OT ball-end handle. Look for a lack of patent numbers on the head, and you would be the lucky owner of a pre-takeover NEW, the last razor design introduced by the original Gillette company!
 
Thanks for all the kind words and great information about these razors, guys.

I am truly lucky to have these fall into my lap.
You could say that the razors are lucky, too, because I have no idea what fate would have befallen them.
