    I already have one of these but this one is a little older and it's in great shape - the paper box bottom is completely intact with minimal deterioration and both bottles are full.

    My newer one is post early 80's (UPC code on the box), the bottle caps are identical, labeling is direct print on the bottles, and volume is 1.7 oz.

    This one has no UPC, darker bottle cap for the cologne, paper/foil labels, and 2 oz volume.

    I love English Leather. And if you don't have any, try getting the shave soap, nice.

    Yaqi is stepping it up with that tube! My Yaqi aqua came in a chincy pain white paper box.

    I've seen the shave soap maybe twice and both times the bid price went past my limit in a hurry. Keeping my eyes open.

    I have to Agree with what you mentioned, they kind of do small batches and see how their customers react and then proceed with improvements is what I have noticed. I really like dealing with Yaqi because they offer very affordable shaving products with seldom a dud. I'm getting near the end of buying shave products for a while and have a lot to use more often & to enjoy them.

    Found a pair of Wolverine field boots, U. S. made, possibly from the late 70s. Well broken in but in great shape, and full leather lined. Gave $2 for them. My size too. Will post pics when I get them remoisturized.

    Recent arrivals in the last two days. The Wilkinson Sticky was purchased as a back up for a cased one I have, but this one is even nicer and I could see no signs of use on it. It will now take over residence in the sticky case.

    -Mike ´s Natural Soaps Orange, Cedarwood and Black Pepper
    -Mike ´s Natural Soaps Peppermint and Rosemary
    -PAA CaD
    -Chiseled Face Summer Storm

    It ´s not like i don ´t have enough soaps, but Mike ´s Soaps are SO wonderful and the PAA and the Chiseled Face soap caught my interest…

    I am mega excited.

    Have a good time.
