    Default First Restoration! Any idea what brush this is?

    I recently acquired some more shaving stuff of my Grandpa's that my Grandma found. One of the items was this shaving brush. It's an Ever-Ready but I don't really know much more about it than that. It's white/cream with an orange bottom and it is marked 137 on the back. Anybody got any ideas?

    Getting the old hair out was pretty straight forward. I put in a 20mm Finest Badger knot with extra hair. It could probably use a little polishing but it was already in great condition. How'd I do for my first time?

    Great looking restore!! Theres a thread stickied on this subforum and it lists all the model numbers and names of Ever-Ready brushes. Check it out and you should be able to find out what model you have. Thanks for sharing!

    It's all good, even when it's not.
