Here is a Gem Razor with it's original box. The razor is a silver color and still has an original Twenty Grand razor inside. The razor measures approx 3 3/4" long.

Thank you AR8Jason.
That is a nice example of a long lost piece of americana. What are you looking to get for it? Please hit me up on the side bar you always use to sell. I won't rat you out.
It's not for sale. I'm sure you'd be able to find one like it somewhere else on the internet if not locally. I've never sold anything on this site.
I like the style of the older Gem razors. The newer micromatic's are not as nice as the one you have.
Great find!
