Gold Medal Award St. Louis Fair, 1904 Shave with it every day for a month. Then if it hasn’t proved our claims for it, Return the Razor. Money Back and Welcome That’s the spirit of our guarantee, and the practice of it. We could not send the Gillette on 80 Days Trial if it did not make good—satisfy the most particular man (and a man has a right to be particular about his shaving). The Gillette is not only a safety, but it’s a razor, too. In fact, it is 24 Razors in One It has twelve keen, double-edged. blades as thin as paper, tempered / and glass hardened by our process so that it takes diamond dust to grind them. Each blade gives ten to thirty perfect shaves. Blades sterilized, packed and sealed direct from factory. Always ready to use— No Stropping or Honing It takes but a moment to insert a new blade. You cannot cut yourself or fail to give yourself a smooth, delightful shave. Think of the waits you save, the cleanly delight of home shaving—and the economy of it. A Gillette lasts for years. When you have used each of the edges until dull, return to us and we will give you six new blades at no cost to you. Additional blades at nominal cost. Ask your dealer; if he doesn’t sell it, get him to correspond with us. Interesting booklet mailed free. THE GILLETTE SALES CO. 1640 Manhattan Bldg. Chicago, Ill.

The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.  |
