Johnus said:It notched so it's after '47. If it has no date code on the bottom of the head then it's 48 to 50. If no date code. Some say that they can tell if it's a 48 or 49 , but I don't think so.
Johnus said:I'd say '49 just because of the case and the blades . Red and clear case 49 had cream colored blade container,(48 had white)(50 had blue) does the blade container have 20 blades in it?
The problem with the boxes is that when people got a new razor, the old one went into the NEW box. So the razor and boxes got miss matched.
Johnus said:To missingskin. I your studies have you seen anything about dating the 1948 aristocrat Jr ? I thought that had read that that one was the only razor of that year that could be dated but of course can not re find the article!
