i'm gonna have to say even if they are NOS, use em. if they take up space, they might as well be functional.

on the other hand, if they're just going to sit on your display shelf, i would recommend you just take pictures of them and send me the actual brushes. that way you can keep the pictures of them in NOS condition and i get to use more vintage brushes. it's a win-win all around!:lol:
 
Beautiful! I'd be so tempted to use them; Aw heck, they'd all be put to the test in short order!! Dude, I laid out a lot of hard-earned dollars for a custom paint job on my motorcycle, and it looks just beautiful cruising down the road
(48K miles) with me trying to wear that paint off. I say "wear 'em out"!
 
Those are gems of brushes! In the boxes... Every brush I find are just wimpy, tired, sad looking things.

It's stories like this that keep me going into those darn stores...
 
Beautiful! The only old brushes I find in the shops around here look like beat up burma-shaves. Nice find. Thanks for the pics.
 
Awesome score :thumbup1:

Is that clear Ever-Ready purple in colour?

Yes the Ever-Ready Brush has a clear handle with like a purple insert. I will take more pics for everyone after I get home from work. Thanks for all the great comments :001_smile
 
You have asked for more pictures, more pictures you will get :thumbup1:

My first score for the week come courtesy of the bay.

It's what I think is a single ring and a plastic I'm not sure what.

So these are my acquisitions for the past month. I've been out of town for the last three weeks and managed to pick up some stuff on the road and also got some stuff mailed to my house. This is the first major re-stock I've done in 2+ years. SWMBO gave me that "silly boy" look while I was unpacking and taking stock.

K3 Gillette Slim (thanks toeknee!!)
