I have 7 Schick E5s. I don't know why I'm weak for it, I just go along with it. I don't even like shaving with an E type, a little too aggressive for me. -jim

Been wanting to buy an Americana Shavemac for a longtime, but not a bulb. :( Great looking collection. -jim

nice! I love those cased Ranger Techs! -jim

I like Astra blades too - was there a half off sale I missed? -jim

It has the look of a G2/G3 injector. Very nice! -jim

nice! That is a sweet set. Anybody know how those fat boys were sold? Did they sell them like above, in a blister pack or have some sort of seal on them? -jim

My opinion is that you can always make the set look right but keep on eye out for the item that will make the set exactly right. I don't dwell on it enough maybe, it's not as if I am creating a NOS set by having the exact right blade pack (but still nice if I could). -jim

They do pop up occasionally. A lot of junk though and you need to factor in the handling and shipping charges. Not to mention the search "razor" brings up a lot of 2 wheeled ones. :) -jim

Speaking of mushrooms, can anybody identify these mushrooms that I've never seen in our yard before, but are spread every now: -jim

Recently purchased this off of Goodwill's auction site. Goodwill's pics (as good or better then I can take!): It's nice that one can find so many Goodwill razors (and sets) in very good condition. I have a few of the cardboard boxes sets that are in excellent condition. 1930s! -jim

Much, much harder to find in the wild - that is - not in an vintage mall or online. The last decent* Gillette was made in the mid-70s before they made the Super Adjustable with a plastic bottom plate (I'd consider the mid 60s also). So 55 years ago for a collector to even consider. That's a long...

The synthetics of today are light years away of the old nylon knots. I bought a Yaqi Tuxedo a couple of years ago and I do like it. I have 3 nylons in my rotation, but only because I like the handles. -jim

I pick all my mushrooms from the local Krogers. Those morels look like they would be easy to identify though. I guess too many years of reading stories of Southeast Asians - entire families sometimes - eating deathcaps. -jim

I still find it amazing that razors this old can still be found in this condition - especially the cases. I will admit that I don't like shaving with a Old Type - for me it requires too much attention and careful shaving. They are just 1 or 2 evolutions above a wedge style safety razor. -jim

Did you scream back? -jim

Can't let this important thread fade away like Sasquatch into the night. -jim

Welcome aboard! -jim

Everybody mentions Bond, but Outland stands out for me. RIP -jim

that's a nice looking hanger Schick hanger! And I know what you mean by the open packs, I've gotten a few before that weren't even loaded with the right blades. That is a little disappointing. -jim
