Gillette DE Razor find

[expat]

Helping friends clear an old house, a brown paper bag was found in the back of a closet, inside was an As New Gillette Tech Pat 1932, made in Canada, just like this, but in New condition

Also in the same bag were two new packs (10 blades per package) of Cooper blades.

The whole thing looks like it was just bought at a store.

I may put these on Ebay, but if any member hear has an interest, please pm me. I'm open to offers.

It seems this razor dates back to 1939 or 40 which would kind of fit with when a man last lived in the house.

Cool find but don't start spending like sailor. I think Gillette made a zillion of those. Kira

I sold a DE razor that belonged to my grandfather. It was the 1980's and DE shaving must still have been a closet hobby - the internet was not there at the time. I have regretted it several times. If it were me, I would keep it. If not to use, to keep for someone else. I mean, honestly, do you need the money that badly?

Im interested if still selling, sent a pm.

I don't need the money, I'm selling for the estate.

I would keep it, but then someone might argue it's value.
