Do you find that these take longer to break in than others? I found a barely used or not used F40 at an antique shop. It's been about 2 months and still hasn't fully broken in (I rotate 3 brushes usually).
I picked this up from the 'bay. I cant seem to find any info on the brush so I thought I would post it here and see if any of you guys know?
I have measured the brush with a tape measure but I will get some vernier calipers and get a more accurate reading for the knot. The overall height is 8cm and the loft is 4.5cm.
The number has been rubbed off from the base of the handle but on the back it has 1612PB. View attachment 493577 View attachment 493580
So I am new to Ever Ready brushes. I found this sitting in my parent's china cabinet and asked if i could take it. It was my great grandfather's. He came to the United States in the late 1800's. Anyone know anything more about it?
Can someone ID this Ever-Ready? I obtained it from a dealer of WWII and other militaria items. It has no model number. Also, It seemed unused, so I cleaned it up and started using it, and the box states the hairs wont ever fall out, the hairs are falling out. Ive done about 4-5 lathers. Is this normal? Due to age?
I'm just getting into Ever-Readys... Does anyone know what the model numbers mean? Such as the 'C' and 'F' prefix on the C40/F40 and the 'T' suffix on several models?
This is a picture of the back of an Ever-Ready retail store display. Note the third bullet point - "The stock number on bottom of each brush is also the selling price".
