    I really liked an Avon called exploration . Very inexpensive, great performance.

    That's a nice case full of vintage. Did you purchase more than the one in the bottom photo?

    Just the injector for now, most in the case were SE'S except for a gold tech and I'm trying to spend more time with my featherweight to make sure I enjoy it before I expand into that world. But something intrigued me about the injector so figured I'd give it a try. But if anyone is passing through NC message me and I'll be glad to share the whereabouts of this little treasure trove.

    Went to the fleamarket this morning early(which is why there is no Focus post). Got the Old Spice for $3. And the yearbook for $10. I was 14 when the Mets won the '69 Series.

    My good friend Andrew, @Linuxguile, and I worked out a deal on these two razors. They are now mine and will complete my Easy Dozen razor rack that I recently got from @Jayaruh. Behold a beautiful GEM 1912 and a Schick E injector. I'm really excited about both of these. Thank you, Andrew!

    My favorite baseball player is Tom Seaver, when I played little league baseball in Hamilton Township NJ I used to pitch and would copy his wind-up and delivery. All the way down to having a dirt spot on my right knee. GOAT!

    Y'know, if I tried to copy Juan Marichal's windup today, I'd topple over backwards.

    +1 on Seaver. Probably my favorite Mets pitcher

    A couple of soaps from brands I've never tried but heard great things about. My B-400 brush handle arrived a day early. This is a piece of art. I'm putting in a tuxedo knot. Thank you @twhite, I'm so excited about this.

    Edit: *Very* mild razor, stoked with a Gillette Platinum. A little more touch-up than with a '40s style, but pleasant. Kinda funny hollow sound when cutting whiskers, though. Sounded cheap, but did what it was made to do.
