This classic & unusual, 1951 Gillette Super Speed"Black Tip" DE razor you are viewing was thoroughly cleaned, polished, and sanitized.
This is the lighter, aluminum handle version, which makesthis an ideal mild shaver. The tip is made of durable plastic.
It's in excellent working condition. The doors open andclose smoothly, as well as tighten down evenly and securely.
The cosmetic condition is very good to excellent with no plate wear/brassing. You'll find a few scratches on the aluminum handle, but they are not deep, and do not effect the shaving experience.
The original case is in overall good shape with a small one half inch crack in the clear plastic lid. The case opens and closes properly and according to design.
"W-3" is the date code, found under the head, andconfirms that this razor was manufactured by Gillette during the third quarterof 1951.
Included is a new five pack of stainless steel blades. Brands may vary.No blades will be shipped with international orders to avertany potential issues with customs.
