Article on how razor blades are made, 1968

Saw this on Ebay, bought it and thought you chaps might be interested in seeing it.
Don't know the source but the seller advised the year in his listing.

It’s from Look and Learn… a weekly “educational” rag we used to get every Monday. I used to pretend to look at it until the Beano arrived on Tuesday.

Many years later, I find stuff like that unhealthily fascinating. It deserves framing.

Next time I’m on ebay, looking for vintage Action Man spares or “proper” Meccano bits, I’ll look out for stuff like that.

Well spotted.

I intend it to get framed and go on the bedroom wall. Just need to sneak it past the missus.

If she objects due to the walls looking cluttered with too many framed pictures I may suggest removing one of my mother in law to make space.

I think you should hang it on the spare bedroom wall… that may be where you end up sleeping.

Are they huge razor blades or are they just very close?
