    Default My Gillettes only....

    Ouch asked me to report in after 6 months so here is my picture report.
    I could not fit all the other brand examples I have nor could I fit all the Gillette memorabila.
    Of course theres all the brushes, soaps, creams, AS, ASB and so on but....

    I think I have enough now...NOT....

    On the one hand, I feel much better.
    On the other ... Ray, perhaps an intervention might be in order?

    There seems to be a touch of "vignetting" in the upper left corner of the picture.

    Oh, those razors! Nice collection.

    Ray that's one heck of a nice spread got there! I even see a blue tipped Fisherman's kit. Where's your '54 TV?

    Looks like I've got some catching up to do.

    Chris, the 54" is on the rack, lower left. Right below the Rocket flare.

    Well thank you sir, the wife and kids went away last evening so it was a good chance to pull it all out and take a couple of shots all together.
    I think I will do the same with all my other razors today.
    Gillettes are my soft spot...

    The rack was very easy to make. I only took about an hour and a scrap 4" x 20" piece of cherry, a jig saw and a drill. I can walk you through the process if you want.

    It looks like we have very similar razor stands.

    BTW, do you have a Gillette New?
