I don't know if the 195 can be considered the rarest Gillette razor anymore, this one has to give it a good run for it's money. So far it's the only one anyone has come across.

I don't know about rare either, but that is one different looking razor. I've not seen one like it before.

I have the other on my watch list. Just curious.

That other razor is insane. It looks like a New and a President had a love child that mated with a Slim Adjustable producing that. Insane.

Maybe it was produced in the '60s. That would explain it... :P

Not Bad. $500+. My snipe was at 101$ :oops:
I wonder how much it will be for one in good condition.
Now, this will give us an idea of how much an Essor will go, if one of them would ever show up on Ebay.

The sniping was hot and heavy at the end. The bids blew past my $130 maximum like I was standing still. :shock:
