The Haul: June 2018

Very vintage beehive brush ...

It's surprisingly heavy and seems like it's made of bone. Probably restore it to a nice badger.

 

My wife and I stopped by an antique store yesterday, in a town about 40 minutes from our home. We stop by there every time we get up that way together. Anyways I picked these up. The one between the boxes is a King Razor Manufacturing Co “silver king”. It has fancy scales, and needs little clean up. All The others need more work but they were only $2 each. They are as follows.
Top middle: Fram 92
Bottom middle: Geneva Cutlery
Far right top to bottom
George wostenholm and sons pipe razor
Joseph Elliot celebrated razor
J R Torrey
And another GEORGE wostenholm pipe razor.
None of the boxes are original to the razors.
The one box is interesting as it’s a 2 razor box marked WM Greaves & Sons Sheaf Works.

Donating stuff before I move, haven't seen anything lately but came across this Hamilton windup at a can't pass up price.

 

It's cool. The watch committee understands.

 

When it comes to pretty much any working winder, the committee always understands. All hail the committee.

 

Not shave related.
This is what my Daughter got me for Father’s Day. So proud of Her.

Received in the mail today from @Kypros Christodoulides in Cyprus. An Ikon El Jefe head, which he polished, on a Maggard MR5 handle, nice and hefty. I know these early ones had some alignment issues, but looking at You Tube videos, not a big deal. Now it's time to start looking for blades for it without spending a lot, yep, I'm very frugal............

 

Beautiful watch, beautiful daughter, lucky to have both.

Fine details, but so far an E4 has been my favorite of adjustable Gillettes. Congrats, hope it cleans up well and shaves great, and you got it for the right price!

Just checked the mailbox and lo and behold. Wasn’t Expecting this for a few days.
I Bought the same brush a little over a year ago. Tried a restore Failed Miserably didn’t turn out good.
So now I’m looking for someone with better SKILLS than me to Restore this brush. Wanting a 2 band best Badger I think no synthetic have to manny of them.
I Don’t Know why this Fuller Brush Speaks to me. I just love the style and shape of it. Yea I’m Weird.
