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.

Customer notes
From our collectors
“Brilliant service. The seller reported a delay in the frame style, a second choice was immediately substituted, (visual choices were made available), and the shipment completed without any problem. He was candid, honest, and thorough. The item is stunning! It is the focal point in the living room,”
“I absolutely LOVE this map; the quality is worth the price! We own a retail seafood company and recently renovated. This map is the centerpiece that I am feeding off of the decor for the entire retail area. Shipping was right on and actually came earlier than expected within a week! Quality company for sure. Can't wait to order more maps !”
