    Default Gem 1912 Travel Set (razor porn)

    Have seen very few of these. Actually this is the only Gem Travel Set I have seen that I purchased a few months ago.Click image for larger version.  Name: DSCN0131.jpg  Views: 222  Size: 30.6 KB  ID: 263012Click image for larger version.  Name: DSCN0132.jpg  Views: 224  Size: 58.0 KB  ID: 263013Click image for larger version.  Name: DSCN0133.jpg  Views: 226  Size: 47.5 KB  ID: 263014Click image for larger version.  Name: DSCN0134.jpg  Views: 225  Size: 38.6 KB  ID: 263015

    Very nice! And a Star brush with it, that's really cool.

    Thanks. HoosierTrooper, do you know the timeline for this set? Like I said, never really seen a true Gem Tavel Set like this.

    this may be a silly question, but if one tube had the Star brush, what's in the other?

    If it's like most travel sets that would've held a soap stick.

    When I purchased the set, the tube did have a stick of soap. However it was quite moldy and generally unpleasant.

    You didn't toss it did you? Old soap like that is a treasure. You can wash off the surface gunk and get down to pure vintage soap goodness.

    I tried that. It pre-dated the fossil record. I like vintage soaps as much as a lot of guys here, but this one was beyond help.

    Nice set, moe72,

    I hadn't realised that the Ever-Ready and Gem are the same razors until I stumbled upon B&B

    There are also Star branded 1912's that are the same.

    Thanks gentlemen. Found the set, knew it was something a little out of the ordinary and had to purchase. Besides it was in such good shape.
