We restore and reproduce forgotten masterworks of graphic design on museum-grade paper — so they can live on your walls instead of in an archive.
The Story Behind the Print
King C. Gillette’s U.S. Patent 775,134, granted November 15, 1904, describes a razor built around a thin replaceable blade held between a guard and cap. The arrangement reduced the need for sharpening while retaining a compact reusable handle.
Exploded blade views, clamps, guards, and two handled elevations give the sheet a dense but balanced mechanical composition. This restored edition preserves the engraved detail in black linework on cool aged paper with a restrained black border.
Printed to order on 325gsm museum-grade archival matte paper with fade-resistant archival pigment inks. A distinctive addition to bathrooms, barbershops, dressing rooms, and collections of product design.
Colors may vary slightly between screens and the finished piece—the print will always be richer.
About the Frame
Framed pieces are built to order in solid wood with a 1.125 inch face, glazed in crystal-clear acrylic, and finished with a kraft paper dust cover and hanging wire. Your print is dry mounted so it stays perfectly flat for decades. Each framed piece arrives ready to hang.
The frame adds roughly 1.75 inches to each side of the print size you select. Framed orders are custom made and ship within 7 to 10 business days, free in the U.S. See our shipping and return policies for framed piece details.
