This classic brass, nickel plated, 1947 Gillette UnnotchedSuper Speed razor you are viewing was gently cleaned, spot polished, sanitized,and is ready for use. It's so called because, unlike later models, there's no notch on the blade holder to assist direct installation from blade dispensers.
It's in excellent working condition. The doors open andclose smoothly, as well as tighten down evenly and securely.
The cosmetic condition is near mint with no plate wear/brassing. You'll find a few light scratches on top of one top door. Naturally this doesn't effect the shaving experience.
This razor is safely dated to 1947, as the previous yearmodel, the Ranger Tech, dates to the previous year, while production of SuperSpeeds with notched blade holders began in 1948. The basis for dating isdeduction as there were no date codes in the 1940s.
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.
