Sorry, can't help with the ID of the straight but it sure looks like it has had the biscuit.
The TTO, turn to open, Gillette looks like a Flair Tip and the 3 piece looks like Tech model of some sort. Not really up on Gillette DEs.
You can find date code info here http://www.renaldo.us/grbd.php and here http://www.razorarchive.com/gillette-date-codes .

Forget the straight razor...Its chipped. That tto looks clean. Hit it with some polish. Its made in England.. I doubt its a real Gillette. but what do I know. You can see the tap marks on the edge. Someone tapped it against the sink. That tap tap tap sound...Ya that tto looks nice. Those Blue Blades are a + for sure. Sweet

They look like from around the 30's 40's. You can't get exact on straight razors. But with the others you can get a production run.

As far as I know Gillette produced DE razors in England and Canada too besides in the USA.

Both are gilettes made in England. The tto was my grandfathers and unfortunately dad had it stashed in a bathroom cupboard for many years and had light rusting on it but came up well and the 3 piece my dads uncle who passed in may at 100. The straight I just cut from the top down and made a new toe. Slightly shorter but in good condition overall.
Ps from the code on the tto was 1926 I think. Had brit pat 694093 on insideLast edited by eddy79; 09-16-2014 at 12:28 PM.
