    Yes, LIFE magazine on Google Books, check it out yourself. I'd guess the 50th anniversary references ASR',s founding which would make it a 1956 issue. FWIW there are other ads from '51 and '52. Below pictured another from February 1951.

    I want a type F. I wish P&G would bring back the Vintage Old Spice soap and aftershave.

    Tabac is just a big ole bucket of German goodness. Love it...scent and all.

    Nothing wrong with the FW!!!

    The F is indeed a great Injector. The only reason I have one is a very good friend gifted it to me. I like to say the best was to judge a man is by the friends he keeps. The vintage old spice soap is great. It is not really anything special though. Burma shave and Colgate and Williams give just as good of lathers. It would be neat if they brought it back though.

    That brush is awesome! Did you skate on the boards?
    Not on these ones used, but I skateboarded for about 15 years.

    I was inspired by all the Feather Weights I've seen around lately. Today I got a "Perfect" shave from mine...I always sing the FW's praises, but I think I must "really" forget what a Great Shaver these guys really are...If I did remember, I would use one every week! After all...it is the razor that got Mickey Mantle hitting Home-Runs with the chicks!!

    Heres my Home Run Shave Kit...

    Today:
    GEM Feather Weight with a new Blue Star Carbon
    That ButterScotch brush is a vintage Stag Badger ( Stag was a RubberSet rebrand for Rexall Drug Stores) Refurb by Gary Carrington
    Barbasol Arctic Chill Menthol Cream
    One Pass Plus Fuzzy Style Witch Hazel Clean Up
    Clubman and Skinbracer splashes....
    And I was BBS and feeling and smelling Great!!!!

    PS: I believe this might be my favorite razor handle...design and feel, period! GEM really did hit one out of the park with this one!!!

    Have a Great Post 4th Week EVERYBODY !!!

    A sublime beginning to what looks like another sunny week and the Open Comb reminded me why it's my favourite Micromatic.
    Helped along its way by the very slick CRSW lather and capped off by the cheap but lovely Boots Bay Rum.
    Happy Shaving one and all.

    The C.O. Bigelow Shaving Cream face-lathered well with the Ever-Ready 200T Boar brush. I did two passes with the GEM Contour Razor with a GEM Blue STAR CS SE blade blade and ended up with a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse, I finished off with Aqua Velva Musk AS. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

    Some do not like the big head on these AC/SE Razors. luckily I have no problems and just love the ease of Shaving with the ATT SE1. Never a problem always great results.
