Vintage 1918 Gillette Old Type/WW1 Era/Date Code Stamped

Description: This vintage 1918 Gillette safety razor is a rare find for collectors and enthusiasts alike. The open comb ball end design is a unique feature of this razor, which is made from nickel-plated brass. It was manufactured in the United States during World War I and is a great addition to any collection of vintage razors. This item is not handmade and is categorized under Collectibles, Vanity, Perfume & Shaving, and Shaving, making it a perfect addition to any collector's display. Amazing condition for 106 years old. Expected wear and scratch marks on the top cap, but it’s still smooth and shiny. The F585225 date code on the baseplate verifies the 1918 year. The open comb and stabilizer pins are rock solid and the teeth are straight. The light fissure on the handle towards the neck does not affect the shave and is very common with these handles. The handle bears the 1904 patent stamp and the knurling is in great condition. The razor has been cleaned and sanitized.
