--Vintage-Gillette-Shave--

I didn't know New Spice HAD a Fresh Lime. Course Old Spice did.

 

Yup it worked fine, nothing special about it, I had a tuck from somewhere and decided to finish it. No need to get more

 

Thursday's Cold Water Shave

Cold Water Rinse
De Vergulde Hand Shave Soap
Red and Black Badger by Tom
Red and Black OT by T. White
Gillette Nacet Stainless
CWR
Florida Water

The De Vergulde Hand Shave Soap lathered well with the Red and Black Badger Brush by Tom. Two passes and touch ups with the Red and Black OT Razor by T. White and a Gillette Nacet Stainless Blade gave me a close, comfortable shave. After a cold water rinse I finished off with Florida Water. I am clean, smooth, and refreshed...

Brush: Maggard 24mm Marble Handle synthetic
Razor: 1940's Gillette Super Speed
Blade: Gillette Perma-Sharp (1)
Post shave: Gillette Gel

I just added yet another Gillette Super Speed to the family, this one a Forties vintage with no date stamp, so it was manufactured prior to 1951. It's missing the end caps but those are only cosmetic. The first stroke seemed a tad aggressive, moreso than my other vintage Super Speeds (1952, 1953, 1955 Blue Tip, 1960 Flare Tip) but it smoothed out after that. Nice, clean shave!
