A beautiful razor from the 1930's featuring open comb guard and balanced handle. The combination set was produced for the man on the go and aided in Gillette's cause of making shaving accessable away from the barbershop and convienent for businessmen. This set features both original soap / an ever ready travel brush, blade bank with camoflauge blades which were only made during World War II and of course the TTO single piece razor itself. Teeth straight and ready to shave. This set is gorgeous, a very rare find!

Our modern King R Emporium soap fits into the travel tins perfectly!

History: The New Improved was the second major line of safety razors produced by Gillette. Featuring popular sets such as the Bostonian, Tuckaway and Richwood, the line of razors were both technically improved through a new guard / handle combination as well as marked in a much more clever and commercial way. Known to be great shavers with a solid feel, the New Improved line of DE razors will forever be known as one of Gillette's classic examples of designing something timeless.
