    Excellent find!! Always forget EL made a shave soap, it's one of the lesser discussed Vintage soaps for some weird reason.

    Thanks ! While you catalog the fallen Soap Artisans, I'm attempting it with the Razor Manufacturers :happy097:

    vintage Williams shave soap container and soap. I haven’t seen a container like this before and it’s double-sided cap

    Give me your thoughts on if the soap is still good.

    Cool find. Here is an ad from December 1925 showing that container type. Capture+_2022-02-04-11-12-58.jpg

    I'm waiting on a bunch of things to arrive.
    • GEM 1924 razor
    • RazoRock v2 Hawk
    • Henson AL13 Medium
    • Yaqi Final Cut adjustable razor
    And I just got an email letting me know the Supply Pro razor I backed as part of their Kickstarter campaign has shipped!

    I can't believe how all of this has come together. It was all rather unintentional, which I'm sure many of you have experienced. A few of them are gifts, the Supply was ordered months ago, and others were just too good to pass up. I'm planning to take a nice long purchasing break since I now have plenty of razors, blades, brushes, and soaps to keep me busy for a while.

    Saw one of those on Etsy before that I wanted to get but it was way overpriced. It's just soap so I would give it a shot if I were you and see Jorge

    I just saw that one earlier after I was doing research. I got all three for less than what he’s trying to get for that one

    Well done. I wouldn't worry about how it looks. My worst looking vintage Tonsorial I turned into a shave stick and it's my best Williams yet. They don't go bad in my experience. Enjoy it the way it was meant to be :happy088:
