A belated Father's Day gift from 'The Lovely Mrs. Headroom......... I present to you The Shave Mobile Perfect for me right now, but the wise love of my life also bought a backup! Maybe she sees something I don't I could see where a seasoned collector could use one as an overnight dapper transport module.
Today's mail included a pack of Schick Pro Line P-30 blades. And a Gillette Big Fellow case from @Jrdelgado that needs a little care. Also a couple of cigar and pipe tobacco catalogs.
Technically, this was a June acquisition, last week I received a Canadian Khaki Set from an auction purchase. This is one of those sets that is a bit of an enigma. The case has definitely seen a lot of use and the blade bank is missing. OTOH, this is probably one of the nicest Techs that I have ever seen with no a beautiful finish and virtually no brassing. Oddly, the set also came with this random piece: I think that's a one-piece Rolls handle, if I'm not mistaken. Of course, I don't own a Rolls, so I'm not sure if I should trade this away or just wait until I get a Rolls.
Excellent. My wife has a “crash cart” for some of her hair and makeup supplies. I think we got it at Sally Beauty. You often see them in salons. Yours is definitely much more masculine. Next up; NASCAR pit box
Apparently, unlike Gillette in the USA, Gillette in Canada made Khaki sets for WWII. Achim's site shows a couple of styles: Which is the one I have, but with a fat handle rather than a two-piece. And this one: which is more of an update of the Khaki Pocket Set.
Love the military sets. And it is super cool you have the mirror! I may have a blade holder somewhere like that. If I find it your welcome to it if you like.
Yes, you are correct, that is a handle for a Rolls razor. Now you have an excuse to buy a Rolls razor
I was pleasantly surprised to find the mirror. As for the blade holder, I would really appreciate it, if you happen to find it. Thanks!
my 53 canadian military set with fluted solid handle. i use the handle on all my techs .heavy and well balanced
At the checkout at Big Lots today were four cans of Axe Urban antiperspirant spray for a nickel per. That's right, five cents each. Clerk had no idea why but since the scent was not horrible, especially at that price, and the girls liked it as not a strictly male frag, they bought em out.
So good day at Fuzzy's den today. After looking at the one bad picture on a auction for a Auto Strop A2 I decited it was worth the risk for $15 and $8 shipping......yesss it was. For a couple of reasons. First one is the A2. It is very dusty but in great shape. Second was this blade bank that will go to @John Ruschmeyer if he wants it. The red box is NOS Durham Duplex blades. So I popped open the Gillette blade bank and lookie here!! These look really nice. Just might get a vintage shave from one.
