Vintage and unusual aftershaves: Post your photos

Klopstick: Superb Seaforth Haul! I almost went for that Scotch Heather set myself.
Simmonds: I'm quite adrool over that Williams set! I'd find it hard not to dig in and shave....

Jim, Seaforth Spiced is one of my absolute favorites. They tucked a little heather in there with the spicy scent, and it's mentholated too. I spent $20 each for 3 unopened 4oz bottles, so you got a score!

I am with you on this...in fact, I already shaved with this set and have decided to enjoy it on occasion instead of just looking at it.

this is my only vintage AS. I have no idea how old it is.

Thanks! The travel set is in mint condition. The man that I bought if from stated that it is the type that was issued to the military during the Vietnam era. I have no idea. Perhaps someone who knows could chime in with a little info.

Those are outstanding 2b1!

I've never seen a silver label on a Jade East bottle. Anybody know anything about it?

Scored these at the local flea market today for $3! The sparkplug is (was) empty, and the liberty bell is full/almost full of deep woods.

Can anyone help me date these? The OS says Clinton, NJ and Toronto on the back. It is a glass bottle.

If the stopper in the Old Spice is smooth it was made from 1956-1967, if it has the star imprint it's from 1967-1973. The 56-67 bottle will have some instructions printed on the back, the 67-73 is blank except for the Shulton name and the cities you mentioned.

Very nice haul by the way!

The stopper is smooth, and there are instructions on the back. 56-67, Cool!

Hi there everyone!

I found this thread and this forum through looking for old, retro aftershaves on google. I've read this thread from the very start, right the way through and I absolutely adore all the photos you guys have added of your vintage and unusual aftershaves. It's been fantastic looking through them all!

The only thing I'd have to offer this thread of any interest is a six-piece Burley set I managed to pick up from a antiques warehouse store that I was leasing a cabinet from at the time. I noticed a few Burley items on this thread, so this one might be of interest:

NICE! Welcome to B&B!

Thanks for the welcome, Spivey! Glad you like it!

Welcome to the B&B! If you get a chance and feel like it, please go the Shave Clinic & Newbie Check-In and introduce yourself.

Nice set of Burley. I don't even remember what it smells like though.

Thanks for the welcome, Jim! Will do so!

Glad you like it! It's quite a strong scent. I put a small amount of it on a small piece of cloth once, and it managed to keep the scent for at least a week or two, which surprised me!
