The Haul: March 2016

The walmarts near me don't have this kind of stuff.

 

Three things for me today. Two straight razors for $15.00. One is a Zanol manufactured at The American Products Co in Cincinnati Ohio. The other is a NON-XXL (?) by Joseph Allen & Sons in Sheffield. Then we have an EverReady 1914 in a very nice box.



And last, I found a barber in a flea market that seemed to have a nice selection of gear.

 

Bristle is what you call the hairs on a boar. Soak it and smell it

 

I bought some Thayers today to see what all the fuss was about. I now know. This is the aloe formula accented with rose petal. It feels great going on, I will be using this from now on instead of alum (unless I'm bleeding)

 

Old School! NICE!

 

Is the rose scent strong? I was at whole foods when I bought mine and they had lavender and rose. I thought it would be best to get the unscented.

 

Wowsers what a vendor!! What are those clear Pinaud bottles at the top? I've never seen those.

 

I bought this at Sprouts. I have no baseline on this but it's been 30 minutes and I can still smell the rose petal scent and I put the Nivea on afterwards. It is not overpowering but it is there.

 

Looks to be hair tonic.

 

Got my 4 brushes to restore

 

That's nice! I may pick up some as well.

 

That is four really good looking handles!

 

Thank you. I dont buy much off ebay but i saw all 4 in one lot. I had to buy them.

 

That's the good stuff!! I use daily.

 

It would be hard for me to choose a favorite.. If you twisted my arm I'd pick the top one. With a boar knot, but the bottom one is really cool.
Good for you!! Clint!!

 

Was out and about and stumbled upon a bottle of Gold Bond Men's Everyday Essentials Lotion, my bottle I have is getting low so I bought it. This stuff is fantastic! Evaporates and 15 seconds. Non- greasy.

 

Found a small boxed bottle of Safari edt from 1991. Vaguely remember seeing it on shelves way back when but had never owned it before.

And more new vintage socks! I like socks.

 

What size shoe do you wear? My father in law has a garage full of vintage stuff

 

Thanks kerry. Yea i really like all 4. Oh there are definitely going to be some boar knots in a couple of them.

 

I'm starting to enjoy a boar brush more often now, I never used one enough for it to break in up until recently.
