Acquistitions 23 Feb - 1 Mar 2009

That's very cool

Here's what I got yesterday.The brush I just got finished with.The handle came from a ladies leg shaving brush retrofitted with a 26mm knot.The straight is a George Wostenholm suedo frameback.The de is a gillette travel razor date M-4 which is 1967 I think. Comes with a gold zippered case and I believe it is mint because it still has the cardboard insert in the head.

Welcome to the Blade.

So here are a few pics. I picked up the $2 Wal-Mart soap today solely for the purpose of having soap in the pics - and because strangely I now want to purchase all things shaving. The CR bag I use to hold a camera lens so I added it for dramatic effect.

Enjoy ...












But now seeing these pics I can see how dull the finish is. Time to bust out the dremmel tool with some polishing gadgets ...

Nice pics! Welcome to B&B and great story!

I'm hoping some day to score my Dad's Fat Boy..he still has it stored away at home somewhere!

Ouch...ol toggle paid $120????

Sounds like you got a bargain bud!

Heck of a deal. I paid $155 for my Near Mint set with the instructions and warranty card.

wow what a great deal
makes me want to head out tomorrow to hit up some shops that I haven't been in a while.

Awesome

Cool story, thanks for sharing!

Sweet score. What do you think about the shave?

The fact that it is Nickel plated makes it SO MUCH MORE desirable. People love the nickel NEWs.

wowowowowowowowowowowow.

...wow.

thats the only type of that razor i actually DO want

Impressive, now go forth and find another one and send it to me!

LOL -- Will do.

No, at the Danish Industrial museum. But I see what you mean

Thanks for the pics. I looooove razor porn. I can't help it. I am an addict. Great little razor. I am a fan of this style.

I've heard of toggles, but never seen one before.
I thought I did OK paying $17.50 for a fatboy, but that toggle is a great buy!

Looks like a great haul.

What an awesome score.. congrats and use it or admire it in great health!
Not sure about value but it is certainly worth more than you paid for it.. probably a few times more
