    That is really interesting. Thanks for posting! Links to any additional information or research?
    And did you buy this or keep it as a souvenir?

    I just showed that to my daughter. She is in nursing school. That would make for an interesting discussion when they do clinicals in psych ward.
    I too am interested in the date codes.

    Very similar to my Gillette Big Fellow in operation I think except the "key" part stays in the handle. I like that better than the traditional 3 peice style as it seems less figgitty when changing the blade.

    Just thinking how you might be psycho to lay that low-bar thing to your face!

    Wonder how often they twisted the key to give the inmates a new blade?

    I found a thread on another forum where a person had a NOS set of TEN with one or two keys.

    Very interesting, never thought about inmates shaving or what they might have used.
