Though razors have come a long way since these items were introduced, such beauties still hold their appeal.
The first three images are what I think are of the The Gillette Goldtone Fatboy. And the last may be a Gillette Black Beauty. Both feature a ring mechanism which adjusted blade angles.
Both are minor engineering marvels, as well as having timeless aesthetics.
