A "couple"
But I am now trying a Tallow based Yardley soap with cucumber extract that is very refreshing yet very modest in cost. I just finished an Italian soap with Lemon EO that was "wake up sunshine" in a big way.Acquisitions July 13 - 19

Got this nice Aristocrat (Patent Pending)
Don't know wether it's a #22 or #66
Very Very nice
I wish, I could afford one of those nice Brits!!!
^^^Me too...me too...
Actually, no. I'd like to find one in a junk pile of razors...that'd be even better

My Sis got back from Singapore. Naturally I asked her to raid Mustafa's for me. This was the loot that I got:
(Clicky to enlarge)
Total damage to the wallet? RM 101.50 (about 30 USD)
What was the priceless experience that came out of this? My Sister's husband (who's always been a can of goop and Mach 3 guy) actually picked up a nice green handled Omega Boar and a stick of Tabac. I was over the moon when I heard that. Taught him how to face lather with it. Oh, while I was picking up the stuff from my Sis, I also found 2 old Parker Flighter 25s (green and blue) that Dad once owned...I think it'll be a nice restoration project to do this weekend.

.

A very very nice '28 New Standard Gold. The pictures on the auction didn't do it justice and I was extremely pleased with what I received. You be the judge.
Looks nice!
Looks nice!
It is very nice, and a great shaver, too!
I picked up the Muehle R89 at bestgroomingtools; alsopicked up the shave brush travel tube for $6 and am happy with it.
Great scores fellows...I am so jealous!!!!....

This stuff has all arrived in the last week. I've been through a long (and expensive) RAD attack and although it seems to have subsided, I am feeling a real desire to expand my cologne collection.

Ever ready streamline:
Robuso (a litle under 5/8) and Sheffield steel (5/8 square point, shave ready)
Star razor:
(whispering: the handle fits perfectly my later catchers
This week I bought three Gillette razors.
They arrived today:
I think these are all very well known and familiar razors?
Did some internet searches and might have been able to identify them.
But any help and suggestions are very much appreciated!
I think this is a Gillette Tech (ball end) from around 1965:
This, I think, is a Gillette Goodwill:
And finally, this could be a Super Speed from the early 1960's?
All are made in England.
Today I received what was described as an "old Gillette razor" so I clicked on that "buy now" button and I got it for 25 dollars shipped to the U.K.
Little did the seller know that this is actually a gem! ( I kind of felt bad, but again, is not my fault that the seller didn't do a research beforehand, right?).
Anyway, here's my lovely 1953 Y3 President.
Some before and after shots.
PS: It came with a Schick blade on the head which sadly produced some tarnish (I was able to get rid of most of it)
I got these through the BST from K9DVM:
It's a good week so far:
Brit. Tech and NEW from Australia. Thanks Bushranger
Brit. NEW and unmarked travel razor in Major case from Australia. Thanks Luc
1964 (J2) "Slim" and a bottle of Pinaud Clubman from USA. Thanks Grump
Regards.

last night $15 BIN.
Picked a very nice 57 red tip up at the post office on Friday that turned out to be even better than it was described by 76white02 in his B/S/T ad.
Thanks, Zach!
Thanks, Zach!
Got my Futur in yesterday. Isn't it sooooo shiny?
Bought exactly the same razor on saturday.
Had 2 shaves, yesterday shaved on 1, today on 1.5.
Extremely heavy and a pleasure to use.
The Merkur packaging though is disappointing is it not?
Also bought one of each:
VULFIX PERSIAN MUSK SHAVING CREAM
CYRIL R SALTER FRESHMINT SHAVING CREAM
Its the 13th here so I thought I'd start off the new week with my mega score.
2 honed straights, white strop pate, Aqua Velva, Williams, VDH and a Whole lot of safety razors including:
Injectors
Gillette Double Ring
NEWs
Old Types
SuperSpeeds
Aristocrats
I got them all in a big ebay lot here
Extra Special Thanks go to SavantStrike, couldn't have gotten all this stuff without your help Chris
And I believe you got a funky two-tone Ranger Tech (gold/brass head, nickel handle) like mine! And a double ring?? Nice haul!
