    I saw that I ebay but didn't bid on it. I wasn't sure if the brush was truly a Rooney or just a really nice looking brush that got paired up with a Rooney Display box. It is an interesting find.

    I'm glad you didn't bid. The sticker marks it as a Rooney as surely as the name "Rooney" marked on the brush would. I've only seen that particular sticker on very old lightly used or NOS Rooney brushes.
    The handle style is odd though. Looks more like an old Kent "V" series handle than anything I've seen from Rooney.

    I think I can make out "Made in China" on the edge.

    The one still listed appears to be cracked on top behind the head. Look carefully before hitting BIN.

    Waiting for this vintage (circa 1910) shaving cream pot lid to arrive from England. Creme d'Amande is French for "almond cream." I want to use some of the graphics for a project I've been working on.
