What are you waiting on to arrive...?

Haha what can he speak then? =P

 

Just missed the Wolf Whiskers wait list. So I won't be expecting a WW brush anytime soon. D'oh!

 

I'm gonna go waaaay out on a limb here and go with Spanish

 

That's a pretty wild guess, don't you think?

 

I get a DFS in one pass every time and a BBS in two. YMMV. Let us know how it goes.

 

Nice catch! Q: how can you tell that it's a '34? The News (or the one I have, at least) don't have date codes, do they?

 

that's what the listing says and it also has a reissue number on the bottom plate. Who knows with these things I'm just glad to grab a nice one.

 

Hahaha, jupp stupid question.. Just saw that

 

Will do @Jim99

 

Can't wait to see what that looks like when you're finished restoring!

 

That makes two of us!
These old frame backs are sturdily-built and restore nicely…

 

I don't have any full-sized butterscotch handled brushes so when this came up I put in a bid of $24 and ended up getting it.
The knot seems good enough to still use but will see when it gets here.

The writing on it isn't completely legible but I can make out;
One one side: Mayfair, Best Badger, Sterilized.
On the other: Made in England - and then two rows of text I can't quite make out - followed by a <C> sign.

I'm guessing it's a Vulfix brush re-branded to some retailer's store but if anyone can positively identify it I'd love to learn.

Thanks - that does help give it a rough date-range
