Shave Stuff Show and Tell

markksr · Jun 10, 2011

You guys may have figured out that I love photos by now so how about a thread to show off all the cool shave stuff we find...

Some vintage shave stick holders I picked up this week.

...and a vintage travel size bottle of Aqua Velva. (It will go perfectly alongside one of those shave stick holders in my Dopp kit.)

Ok Mark I'll go with you. Here is my 1953 Viscount Rolls Razor. I've been shaving with it since 2009 and like it. DM

Some dirty rotten no-good dealer sent me some free SE blades with a recent order, so of course I had to pick up a single edge razor to go with them...

Gem Open Comb Micromatic

PS- Those Rolls Razors are something else, aren't they David? I found one in a friend's antique shop around '98 and used it for over a year until my girlfriend at the time dropped it and chipped a chunk out of the blade.

:thumbdn:

Maybe it's time for me to get a new one. (Now see what you started...)

I had a dealer send me some Feather SE blades as a free promo, luckily Feathers and I don't get along so I didn't have to run out and buy a SE razor, I just gave them away in a thank you PIF

Yes, I like the Rolls Razors and purchase them when I come across them. DM

Nice Vance! When I was young, I remember seeing all those Avon bottles lined up on my barber's shelves and thinking that they must be pure magic!

I may have posted these before, but I hope no one minds seeing them again.

This one I gave to my son.

And this one sits on a shelf in my bathroom.

Keep the pictures coming guys! :thumbup:

Nice shaving stuff here guys. Mark, I've often thought your AVATAR photo some way doesn't fit in a shaving forum. DM

LOL. Even with the beard I still had to shave my neck, but the beard has been gone for a little while now.
