There's no more stylish way to store or transport blades than in these Gillette blade banks from 1908. Perfect replacement blade banks for any razor sets that have been waiting to be reunited. Incredibly rare and almost never come up for sale, cardboard is a fragile material and they did not survive the years. These two blade banks are in excellent condition and 8 NOS Gillette blades are included. One blade bank shows minor signs of age, the other none.

The black hasn't faded after all these years and the Gillette lettering on the side is shiny a full! A must have for any collector or shaving enthusiast.

History: Blade banks were used in Gillette razor sets from the start of the company in 1904 through the early 1940's. This was one of the last type to be used and is very convenient to get blades out of due to the thumb hole in the bottom.
