Starting off with a non-shaving acquisition as I really like it - and it was $4
High quality beanie by Gustin.

You don't see these blue Schick Type L4s every day so happy to find one still in its package.

Is this the one made in Holland? And does that day $109 or am I reading it wrong?

According to the writing on the back it's from Toronto, Canada.
Nah, the original price was $1.09 - and that was for the pack of blades (that someone later nicked) - the razor was a free gift at the time
The red sticker in the upper left shows it being reduced from $1.09 to 74 cents.
Guess it didn't sell too well.

Gotcha, they were cheap weren't they! Shame they aren't that price now! Isn't this the second L4 you have recently acquired? What's the difference between the two?

I think the other one was just posted in the "waiting for"-thread. This is the only one I have

Nope, it was in September acquisitions... You cleaned it up and everything!

Oh I have two? I must..have forgot...

 

[Looney12345]

Lol, that's convenient so what's the difference between the two? My interest is coming because I have Scott's L4 on the way!!

Maybe you're thinking about the black-and chrome I4 I picked up?
Correction: I2 I believe

Yes exactly...

 

[Darkbulb]

Ah, I2 vs L4 then
Schick model differences here.

Interesting link, thank you. Is the black and chrome one definitely and L2? It looks like the one Scott sold me, which he sold as an L4? I'm so confused

I'm far from a Schick expert - for that we'd have to summon @Fergiebilly but the black and chrome should be an I2 and the blue one an L4. The handle shapes are quite different.

The L 4 has a Blue Handle...The Black Handle L Model is an L 1...Its Smooth on Topside & Ribbed below..The Type I 2 is Ribbed on Both Sides..
