From that ebay? That went a bit pricey - mind you so did the Grossmiths vintage soap. This is my (to me, utterly epic) consolation prize

A "Vintage rare collectable Gillette Safety Razor Made in England in 1950's," according to the eBay listing title.

We are perhaps more familiar with it as the British N° 58 Aristocrat, sometimes called the N° 58 Coronation Set if it's the varient with the crown on the case.

There are two types of this razor. An aluminum varient, and a brass varient, which weighs in at approximately 68 to 71 grams, putting it firmly in the Rocket HD family of razors. This is the brass heavy varient.

This will be my first Rocket, Aristocrat, and British DE razor, all in one nice tidy bundle. Ain't she pretty? A real bargain too, at £56.26 + shipping. It sold once before for almost double that, but for whatever reason was relisted. I just got the shipping notification a few minutes ago. I do wonder how one of these ended up in Sofia, Bulgaria.

Lovely - liking that very much!
 
I was waiting on P&B Citra Royale but that arrived a few minutes ago, I think I'll wait until my ATT R2 arrives from the 'States before the P&B gets broken out. I may falter and try it out sooner than that though, a few sunny days and I'll definitely succomb.
