    I really enjoy displaying these old newspapers, i just don`t want to burn you guys out by posting one every day. I have plenty, so don`t think i just ran out. There will be plenty more, just not every day. I can post one every day if enough guys want, but it`s up to the members. Thanks for the interest, i love them. With regards.

    I really appreciate that you add the newspapers, it's something that is historical, and unfortunately going away.

    Last night I used my new whipped dog 30mm synthetic for the first time. It's a real nice brush. I was concerned that it might be too big but no troubles. It whipped up a real nice lather from the mitchell's wool fat. I have been getting some good lathers out of my mitchell's wool fat as of late. I've found that I get my best results with synthetics.

    Here's the gear from last night

    -prewar tech
    -mitchell's wool fat
    -whipped dog 30mm synthetic.
    -shark stainless blade (3)
    -mix of 2/3 Florida water and 1/3 thayers lemon witch hazel
    -fruit of the earth aloe vera gel.

    Result a DFS.

    The results of this shave were so fantastic - the Obsidian soap, matching balm, and Snake Bite kicked the icicles into my face at 6:00 AM and I can still feel them! :happy088: :happy088:

    Razor: Gillette Tech Black Plastic Handle Razor (X4) 1952
    Blade: Dorco ST 301 Platinum SK (5)
    Brush: WDC-8 TGN Finest
    Soap: Route 66 Bourbon Jungle
    A/S: Route 66 Bourbon Jungle
    Bowl: Pottersong "SHAVE"

    Looks like Spring has arrived. :party::party::bounce017::bounce017::bounce017:.
    Still impressed with the Dorco ST 301. Could be in the running for find of the year. Roue 66 Bourbon Jungle is one of , if not my favorite shave soaps. The moment you open the container until you put this shave soap away on the shelve it is a complete joy.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    It is a South Korean company. They make the razors used by Dollar Shave club too. www.dorcousa.com is the website. I'm sure they have one in Korea too but I've never checked.
