FS / FT Antique Gillette Razor Set PLUS Rare Gillette Brush

**Antique Hoosier** · 04-25-2007, 08:30 AM

REDUCED!!!! $22.50 SHIPPED First Class Secure FS / FT Advertising Promotional Razor Set Compliments of Esco Walk & Sons (Fine Men's Clothing Shop) of Vincennes, Indiana Old Style 3 piece Gillette Razor with OLD No Stropping / No Honing Blade. Included is a very Scarce Gillette Travel Brush that appears to be as small if not smaller than the Simpson Wee Scot. I wouldn't advise using the brush as it appears to be useful for display purposes. I have seen only one other of these and it is in the collection of a European Gillette Connoisseur. I purchased the Esco Walk Set at a Antique Store in Cambridge City, Indiana for $27.50. I recently purchased the brush on eBay for $5.00. I am asking $30.00 Shipped to CONUSA only, PayPal only or suitable trades. I will throw in a pack of Feather Blades as well. I would imagine that an individual could actually use the razor in their rotation if they choose. I bid the opening bid on the brush never expecting to win it. Thanks for your interest. PM me. First member to PM AND offer a suitable Trade in the $22.50 range or pay by Immediate PayPal will have the items shipped First Class Mail wrapped securely to their confirmed address.REDUCED!!!!

I know this is an old topic, but if you still have this, I am interested in it.

After over 3 years, I don't like your chances.

Hey fellas;

1. This is a three year old thread. I hate Lazarus threads.

2. Some noobs may not appreciate that you guys are just being humorous, and may believe that your offers are serious.
Please be cautious, or add a note that clearly indicates that you are not bidding on an item in the BST.
We don't want new guys to think this is e-bay.

**HoosierTrooper** · 06-27-2010, 08:29 AM

Yeah, my offer was made in jest, I should've noted that. My apologies to Darksir.

Again, my apologies for bringing up such an old post. I knew my chances of the item still being available was pretty slim, but I couldn't pass up the opportunity to find out for sure. I'm the current-day occupant of the storefront that was once Esco Walk & Son. It would just be a wonderful piece of history to display. At the very least, I have the picture now.

Thank you :)

Send the original poster (Antique Hoosier) a private message (PM). He may still have it, or may remember who he sold it to and put you in touch.

I would go to lengths to help get that razor back to where it was distributed nearly 100 years ago - what a cool story!

**Darksir** · 07-09-2010, 03:49 PM

I have done so. Will keep my fingers crossed. Thanks again.
