Slick said:A Milord type ranger tech gold colour.
It came pretty ropey so I have managed to unrope it.
May yet get it replated.....
Here it is snuggling up to Dodgy's Ranger tech...
Awwww, isn't that a cute pic. Just like two puppies playing. Gotta love those natural and unscripted type shots.
I'm gonna try and grab that excellent Milord combo this week sometime, so maybe hold off on the replate for a day or two(if humanly possible).
If you do end up sending it in, please have the Ranger plated in upsidaisium as a thank you to me.

I'm selling a lot of stuff at boot sales at the moment, to get my stuff down so it will fit in my girlfriend's flat when I move in.
Have never had much luck perusing the 'competition' for old shaving goodies but chanced upon this.
Was very dirty and musty on the surface but upon opening the acoutrements their insides revealed the razor, toothbrush, brush and comb had probably never been used - always a plus. The plastic styptic pencil (with contents still inside) was cracked and had a section broken off but everything else was intact.
The razor handle looks flimsy - white hollow plastic. The blade sadly doesn't always align evenly but it looks perfectly good otherwise. This and closer inspection of the other items shows it wasn't ever an expensive set, but I only paid a pound so happy with that.
The razor doesn't have a Gillette logo or any markings on it other than A3. If it is a Gillette then A3 would indicate third quarter 1980? Makes it about 18 to 21 months older than me.
