For you today, we have a razor that is considered to be one of the most beautiful models Gillette ever created: the Executive. Between the heft and cool factor, it doesn't get more classic than this. Nothing bent or broken- great mechanical condition. Comes in original box (or half of it actually) with wrapped cream blade dispenser, which was the very first blade dispenser issued by the company. The rarest addition to this listing are the original painted dispensers in the secret back compartment. Super rare!
A perfect razor for a perfect shave! Original rhodium plating is in perfect overall condition. Everything opens smooth and closes tight. Razor features Barber Pole knurling pattern, known to be one of the rarest and most sought after patterns. When released, this Executive model was 10x the price of a standard super speed razor (1950's super speed was $1.00, the Executive was $10.00).
