The Gillette Blade

The Gillette Blade was a company newsletter which took the form of a 40-80 page illustrated periodical. Issues were given to company employees monthly from 1918 through 1920 and quarterly from 1921 to 1928. There are 66 issues in total and the collection includes the very special 25th Anniversary Silver Jubilee Edition.

This is considered to be the crown jewel of the Razor Archive collection, because only 1 other set of these bounded newsletters is known to be in existence in the Boston Public Library. Razor Archive has worked for months to scan in the over 3,500 images that make up this collection and bring them to all interested safety razor enthusiasts for your viewing pleasure. Be sure to check out these timeless pieces of Gillette Safety Razor Company history.
