    The Buddha reckons that there were at least 2 different types of magazines for the Repeater's....The early ones were made by the Repeating Razor Company & the later ones by Eversharp...The differences were only cosmetic, however, and therefore all the repeater's will accept the same magazine... ;)

    You got me! I tried to bid on that one but had some sort of error. Glad someone from here got it.

    Just got an Aristocrat off of eBay. I have been wanting one, and it was a decent price. I am also waiting on my most recent Stirling order with lots of bath soaps and some Gatlinburg SS. I also noticed that they had unscented mentholated PSB, so I picked some of this up as well.

    Curious to hear your take on the Gatlinburg scent when you get it - it sounds intriguing.

    Sometimes....I just don't understand USPS:

    05:30am: Package arrives in Martinez, CA
    07:55am: Sorting complete in San Francisco
    08:05am: Out for delivery in San Francisco
    08:06am: Arrived at Martinez, CA

    ......huh?

    One man can only deliver so many packages. He passed it off to a pinch hitter.

    Scored the very rare and elusive "Gillette U.S. Patriot kit"!!

    OK, so there is no such thing :)


    But, I like the case, never had a case for my birthyear Slim so that's what this will be used for.

    Trivia:
    The blue blade case in the picture is a "US Gov't Gold Bond" case and blades.
    These were around in the 40's and 50's. Here's a sample ad from a newspaper in 1957:

    I've seen blue and yellow gold bond razor cases but they don't surface too often for some reason.
    Here's a yellow one:

    Picked up a Wilkinson bonded razor.
    This one was sold in Portugal and maybe I'm delusional but I think the razor is more white than the 'grayish' razors of this model that I've seen before.

    After a ton of questions and plenty of contemplating, I finally pulled the trigger and ordered a Merkur 39c. Should be here by Tuesday.....never thought I'd be this excited about buying a razor.
