A bit of history....
PAL Safety Razor Blades were manufactured by the Pal Blade Company (and later under American Safety Razor) PAL was practically a household name in the mid 20th century. They are known for their premium hollow ground edges and were the standard issue in many WWII and post war military shaving kits due to their durability and mass retail availability. The Hospital Brand Blandes are unique packs that were produced by the Club Razor & Blade Manufacturing Corporation out of Newark NJ- they were intentionally packaged with minimalist sterile layouts to serve specialized wholesale like medical supply houses, psychiatric faculties prisons and military bases more function less flash. The Personna Blades is one of the oldest running brands in the United States. This plastic sliding dispenser marks the pivotal late 1960s transition from traditional rust prone carbon steel to polymer coated "Super Stainless" steel - this kind of revolutionized modern wet shaving
These Razor Blades are from Circa 1940-1960s - while the blades themselves are still factory wrapped - I am not sure if they would be good for actual wet shaving. They are over 50 years old. But if you are a collector - this is a perfect estate collection set
Please note that all vintage antique or secondhand items will have some level of wear even if it is small
Your order will always be packaged with great care!
