    Found a seller on Etsy offering soaps with goat milk. I went through many pages of reviews and all were 5 stars. It takes a little longer to arrive, but for $5.00 each, with combined shipping, why not. I ordered Lavender and Pineapple Express.

    Rotbart Nr. 5040 set with razor still in plastic wrap. It seems to be missing original blades, but I have some from my Nr. 5050 set it can share with for now.

    Thank you Gary. I've developed a bit of a weakness for the Rotbart's. :)

    I have one of those ...... it's a US made bakelite Slant Stroke razor ...... I believe from the 30's to possibly the 50's. Came with a bakelite handle and its patent number is 2093851.

    Very nice shave mild to medium efficiency.

    Hope that helps.

    :)

    IMG_1658626911331.JPEG Ebay seller's pics. Bought it mostly as spare parts for my "good" one. We'll see what shape the hone and strop are in after USPS is done manhandling it. If necessary, I can swap the guts from my current set over. It's the somewhat rarer/uncommon Imperial 3 stainless steel model, so it should polish up as nice as any nickel plated set. It has a telescopic handle, I think, which is usually frozen beyond salvaging, if I recall my reading on those. One blade is good, the other might be.

    In 1932, this particular set sold for $20. ($432.57 in purchasing power today. A very expensive razor). In 2022, $14.99 plus shipping. It's absolutely crazy. The Rolls is a good, even great, razor. In it's day, it was a popular razor.

    A member on another shaving forum once said that he remembered his father telling him that in the 1940's, any hotel he stayed at was filled with the sound of many Rolls razors stropping in the morning. It was actually the newfangled electric razors that pushed Rolls out of favor with the masses, not Gillette or other DE razors, as many people think.

    Edit: If anyone buys one of these contraptions from eBay, or from anywhere involving boxes and shipping, it is highly recommended that you and the seller have a little chat about storing the handle in the gear track rather than smack dab center of the hone. (Which was an optional "rattle free" spot to carry the handle, but was liable to crack your hone if the razor was dropped).
