OK -to start off the week - here's what's lately in:
In yesterday from the nice folks at West Coast Shaving, Simpson Persian Jar 2
a generous PIF from Cap'n Joe (thanks, Lucky!)
from dbay,
a Schick Type I1 injector:
a cool Hoffritz pure babger [sic] travel brush (16mm knot, 44mm loft, 88mm handle):
and my pride and joy - a birth year superspeed, baseball special promo set:
razor is a Y2; blades unopened, with cardboard insert behind; World Series Record book is a little tattered.... I think the razor has never been used.

15ml tester of Dirty English

So you're the one who outbid me!
Here's the gear I picked up today.A chrome razor and brush stand.A bottle of pinaud napoleon.A klenzo badger cased brush.A century pure bristle brush.
hmm... guess so!
any clue to the identity of a French brush maker who might have made travel brushes for Hoffritz... and can't spell "badger" in English?
????
My guess was Plisson, I can't think of any other french brush makers.
My guess, too - I just didn't want wishful thinking to overwhelm!
(now I maybe have... yet another Plisson!)
Hello,
The score these days: a nice couple of Gillettes.
First one is a Flare Tip I think, the second one I think is an Adjustable C4.
Can anyone help me date these razors?

The Filly 13 arrived on Saturday and has been shaved with. The Filly 14 EPBD arrived several weeks ago and has been shaved with as well.
The 13 gives an amazing shave. The 14 gives the best shave I've ever gotten.
In my opinion, there is no hype over the Filly 14 EPBD... its all true. No hype at all.
