I picked up this E1 up recently for $9, and it is in near mint condition. There was an old blade, the kind with no slots, that wasn't even rusted, still in the razor which leads me to believe this one never had any water on it. Something I found interesting is that it has MADE IN U.S.A. stamped around the spring assembly. I looked at my other E and G types and none of them has that. Anyone else ever seen that? I've used it a couple times, but this one may become more of a show horse rather than a work horse just to preserve the condition it's in. Sorry my photographic skills aren't that great but here's a couple pictures. I didn't clean or polish it before I took these, this is how it looked when I found it.

Super E-2. You know I love them. The " Made in USA" shows on the early E-2's and the E-1 in that spot. The E series after that has it on the inner plate(as does the D). Also they're on the E-2 with the 66 finish. In the E series my faves have it on the back. They just shave me better. Enjoy! Great price too. btw--The E-1(on the left) has the flat type spring, The E-2(middle) the round with tabs and USA on back and the G round spring on the inner plate. Schick E's

Interesting info, and thanks for correcting my glaring mistake of calling it an E1.

That's one immaculate E-2 you have there Tom for just $9. My $9 Canadian E is nowhere near the condition yours is in. It looks like it was never used before.
