June 2014 acquisitions

What, nobody is buying stuff this month?

I'll start, but it is just a small one. I found a L'Occitane soap bowl in a thrift store today for $1. Pretty happy with that!

The newest buy

Nice scores!

I just got a couple things so far

V-L Silvertip; 1973 Gillette Tech; Weber PH; and 400 Astra SP blades.

I picked up a Feather AS-D2 in the B/S/T and made it out of Pasteur's Pharmacy yesterday with only 3 soaps (great restraint required). Pre de Provence, Haslinger Schafmilch and La Toja stick. 50 Gillette Platinums on the way.

I had a few packages waiting for me upon my return.

An order from Feelunique:




A few things sent from a friend in France:

Here's the last package I had waiting for me... one of my holy grail brushes, and a custom order:







Here it is in the company of my Rooney 3XL Heritage Original Gel Tips (my densest brush... until now) and the CH2 2-Band:





I think the picture from above clearly shows the density and size of the knot, and makes the 3XL look almost like a Wee Scott!

Cheers.

Just got these in the post

Picked up this Simms brush today. Always wanted a green one. Will probably be my first restore.

I have a Plisson brush on order. Should be in soon.

A Pat 1937 Schick Injector, a Parker IM fountain pen, and a shampoo/body bar from Wild Prairie Soap.
