I saw one of these shaving gizmos in an antique store last summer...it was quite beat up, but your looks to be in good condition. Nice find.
Thanks, buddy. I bet you Canadians don't even raise an eyebrow over 3 inches of snow and -10 degrees Celsius

Thank you Pretty easy actually: I took the picture on our snow covered patio - I very carefully arranged the 3 items (did not want to destroy the snow blanket) and then used a telephoto lens for a narrow area of focus. I also chose a slight overexposure (recommended for snow photos). Next to no post processing except some cropping and a bit of sharpening.
