    Default Pics of my antique shop find

    I posted a thread a while back about some vintage Old Spice stuff I got at an antique shop. I received the "no pics, didn't happen" line. So I finally got a camera and went to edit the post but was unsure how. So are the pics, let me know what you think and if you have any info on said items, esp. the brush b/c I don't know much about brushes. Thanks.Click image for larger version.

    Century brushes are some of the coolest retro brushes out there I think. Second only to Ever-Ready in style. I've not seen many Century's I didn't like. Good score all the way around. Is there any aftershave in the bottles ? Specifically the Burley ?

    All the original stuff, aftershave, cologne, and talcum, are at least 85% full, the Burley aftershave has about 30% left and the Burley talc is about 80% full.

    Breathtaking haul! I have trouble finding ANY Shulton Old Spice in my antique safaris, having only really scored one bottle. The Burley in particular is VERY HARD TO GET... and you found the Talc too. Amazing.

    I got real lucky. This was the first time I have found anything worth while at an antique store. I got all of it for $30, I was very happy about it.

    Sweet find. Spent $100 or so at antique shops today but came home with about 10 brushes.

    The Burley is the gem in that great haul, IMHO. Never seen the Talc before.

    Congrats, enjoy.

    Those Old Spice after shaves in the milk glass are garbage- send them to me for proper disposal. Seriously, though- nice haul. Enjoy.
