I realize I am somewhat new to this forum, but when I posted the information on the Type A Schick, I figured that should post a web page from GeoCities that has been archived in the Internet Archive Wayback Machine. Since GeoCities has been taken down, these pages have been stored as a part of Internet history.

Included are charts and timelines for Gillette and Schick Razors and additional articles on King C. Gillette and Col. Jacob Schick.

Safety Razor and Shaving Collectables

Enjoy!

Thanks for posting this great resource. It's the best I've seen so far on description/dating of the Schick Injectors. Thumbsup

With Matt's help (thanks Matt Smile ) I have just made this a sticky or "Important Thread", as it's called here. That way, for checking razor dates and other useful information this thread will always be at or near the top of the Razors & Blades forum for easy reference.

A big Thank You to GDCarrington for posting this. Thumbsup

Here is a page on Wilkinson razors that I'll go to to check what I'm looking at on ebay.

Good reading guys.

That page is actually on the link that GD posted. If you go to that page, then click on the Schick section you'll see essentially the same page as the renaldo site, it's just a different font. Something I just noticed.

Some time ago, Jody had noted that the original pages were disappearing as Yahoo was clearing out GeoCities references. He did not know that the Internet Wayback was archiving them. So he placed them in his blog as a safety copy. Some others have saved these pages to hard drive storage as well as a "just in case" measure.

Yes, as Gary noted, I archived it on my RenaldoDotUS server so it wouldn't be lost because many of the pages were disappearing with the Geocities kill-off. I've also added to it, adding more info and more pictures of the different Schick injector models that they didn't have in the original page.

I also archived their Gillette Razor and Blade dating chart and updating it with current information as I learn of it. As I'm not allowed to post links here yet, it can be found via the main page of my domain.

ah, so this is your site?
http://renaldo.us/SchickRazors.html

I found an error in one of the patent numbers, I think, when I was researching one of my injectors.

if you ever need extra redundancy, let me know and we can host the stuff here as well.

ps, once you hit 10 posts, you'll be able to post links on this forum.

Yes, that's my site. While I've gotten out of collecting and am slowly selling off my collection, I still love it and the history. I just hated to see those valuable resource web pages get lost and didn't realize the internet archive had backed them up as well before I backed them up on my domain. If you see any errors or anything that needs updating on the Schick and Gillette pages, definitely let me know. Since I've "saved" the pages, I'm trying to get them more accurate and up-to-date as possible.

It's the site I use for identifying injectors! in fact, I don't know of any other site out there, except yours, to identify them.

Here's a post that refers to an error I think I found on your site for the G series injector:
