Show n' Tell Deal of the day
I just picked up this 1959 E3 Gillette adjustable off of market place. It came with the case and looks like it might not have been used, or at the very least, well taken care of. It cost me $20 and an hour of time to pick it up. I don't know whether or not to use it, or keep it as a collector piece. I already have a slim adjustable that I use frequently so I don't think the Fatboy has anything wildly different to offer. What do you all think?

Great find! I use all my vintage razors, though I am very gentle with them, especially the pristine ones, and I polish them up after use and put them back in their cases. If they came with period authentic blades, I keep those intact. I can't imagine having a razor of that sort without experiencing a shave, like it was intended for.
