Notes of Interest:
  • This model was introduced for the holiday season of 1934 and retailed for $4.00. This was the first twist to open model Gillette offered. There were 2 different boxes for these razors; a gold plated case with a greek key pattern, and the blue leather box. Additionally, the late 30's Aristocrat has no rivets visible on the side of the head. Please see the last photograph, picture credit to enderi.
