1940's Gillette British Aristocrat No 21 Set 24K Revamp

Available is a rare British Aristocrat that even Mr. Razor knows little about. Made in England in the 1940's, this is one of the best made TTO razors ever manufactured by Gillette. Case is a rare leather with original gold trim and includes 24K Gold Revamp Blade Bank and Razor. This razor arrives Display or Shave Ready after undergoing a full mechanical inspection, resurfacing, plating, and lubrication. Solid guard aristocrats have a special place in my heart because their moment in history is intertwined with World Wars, Patent Wars, and the foundation of the Adjustables. Truly a mystery piece and one that will hold a very special place in a Gillette Collection!
