A beautiful and authentic vintage Gillette shaving set, complete in its original case.
This set includes a classic Gillette safety razor, original blade holder and period razor blades, all housed in the original fitted box with purple velvet interior. The inside lid clearly marked “Made in USA – Gillette – Known the world over”.
These compact shaving kits were commonly used during the 1930s–1940s and were often taken along by soldiers as part of their personal gear, making this a perfect WW2 era personal item display.
Condition is very good for its age, with normal signs of use. The razor remains in nice collectible condition and the case is still solid with only minor wear.
✔ 100% original period set
✔ Nice complete example
✔ Ideal for display, collection or reenactment
A great and increasingly hard to find personal item from the WW2 era.
