I just won an auction on Ebay for a NOS bottle of Yardley aftershave. I probably bid more then I should have ($34 incl shipping), but I remember it from my Dad shaving in my pre-school days (early '60's).
He's been gone a few years now, but the picture of the bottle of Yardley brought back many memories. I now remember he shaved with a Gillette Blue-tip & also used Yardley soap in a wooden bowl.
I can remember having to stand on the toilet seat because I wasn't tall enough to see into the sink.
Has anyone else made shaving purchases because of the memories?
Hmmm, wonder if I'll run across the soap?...
