THIS THREAD IS SOOOOOOOOO INNOVATIVE AND NEW.

How I wish we had similar malls here in India

This is an awsome concept...wonder why some enterprising Indian has not thought of it yet !!!!

Maybe I should.......but I am too old for that kind of initiative !!!

Then maybe I can inspire someone.........BUT WILL IT WORK HERE IN INDIA ?????

Half a dozen cased Old Type Gillettes. Nothing special. Off to my next stop.
Gasplant was a ghost town. Final stop next... Patty's Antiques

I just gotta say, this is such a GREAT idea! B&B, now STREAMING LIVE!! Hoosier, you DA MAN!!








(...As if we all didn't already obsess enough about shaving...)

 

[Antique Hoosier]

3 Basic Gillette Techs and a Clix Razor. I should have called it a day after my first stop! I will try this again no doubt!

 

[jwhiskercut]

Makes me so jealous!!! The closet thing I can find to a vintage razor in local antique stores is a rusty knife!!!

 

[insomniac]

Half a dozen cased Old Type Gillettes.

I don't have an old type

Fun thread! Thanks Mike!!

I hope you are going to continue shopping. I just love this. Antique shopping is all we Hoosiers do, besides shave and play basketball.

We have a giant antique mall near me in Edinburgh Indiana. Several hundred thousand square feet of space. I spent several hours in there over the course of two Saturdays and only found a broken down lady injector and a broken/rotted old horse hair brush.

Really cool thread idea. I'll be checking back on this one from time to time.

 

[W_B_K]

Very cool idea for a thread, thanks!

Crazy how you can go through a huge mall and not find anything. You would think shaving items would be so much more common!

 

[mdevine]

I love the thread. Where in Florida is this?

I love the thread. Where in Florida is this?

In and around the Tampa Bay area

Thank you for your time, very cool thread Mike.

Thanks Gentlemen! This thread will be updated when I get the chance to go "hunting" again. I'm basically a minimalist but I do like a good hunt... The Bismarck razor was $30 and the NOS Williams stick was $8. I encourage other B&B members to document their "LIVE Antique hunts" on this or their own threads... It's fun!!! I can't believe I didn't think about it before now... Here are the two items I "bagged" today...

I am going to do a full review of the Williams Soap Shave Stick and the Bismarck.... Be looking for them!

 

[beginish]

This is a great thread, Mike. I thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I have to think that this kind of hunt beats the Bay any day.

 

[Veritas II]

Agreed. This was a great thread. I may attempt something similar on my next hunting trip. Unfortunately, most of the things I find are crap.

Thanks for taking us with you.
