Brush aquisitions

**Storer50** · 12-20-2009, 03:24 PM

New brush acquisitions from today's excursion. Went to an "upscale" flea market (note to self, no such thing as an upscale flea market.) One of the vendors had 4 shaving brushes in a case. Had her get them out, then she said she had more in the back. Oh did she, she pulled out another 4 brushes, along with a box of razors and barbershop paraphenalia. At this moment I was in BAD so my RAD was put on hold. Will be going back for the razors soon. I ended up buying 5 brushes. From left to right: Ever-Ready blue and white with the number 100 on the bottom, Ever-Ready marked 50R, Ever-Ready marked 202, Brush marked on the bottom 153 that I believe is Ever-Ready but I could use some help, Mohawk marked 3-338. Any history would be very appreciated. Thanks

Looks like a pretty nice haul.The middle one has an interesting shape to it.

How much for that maroon one, 2nd one from the left?! heh. Man I wish I could find a score like that. Those look like they are going to be great brushes.

The one marked -153- on the bottom is probably a Rubberset. I just cleaned one of those up recently.

I paid 30 for all 5, maroon itself was $18 and she offered it to me for $9. I keep hearing about great deals and I think I finally got one.

If you look in the restore thread you can see what that Rubberset 153 could look like. Looks like it could be a fantastic deal if you choose to put some new knots in there.
