Welcome to a new week of the SOTD

Trying something a bit new for our "suggested" SOTD theme this week and you have all entered......

THE SOTD ZONE

Picture if you will... It is the mid 1960's, you are sitting in your office on Madison Avenue. You are wearing your best Brooks Brother suit, you have your hair slicked back, have two fingers of Scotch in a tumbler... You ARE Don Draper from MadMen.

You have been hired by the Secretive Advertising Department of Badger & Blade to come up with a Series of "Ad Slicks" for your shave of the day.

Have fun with this, add tag lines, focus on a specific product, or the entire shave set up. Here is an example:

As always this is just a suggestion, feel free to post any of your SOTD photos, and texts.
We look forward to seeing what you Gents come up with this week.

HAVE FUN!

brought to you by your humble Stewards, Dave & Celestino:001_smile
