That all looks great! I received my bowl from Ray yesterday and loaded it up with a puck of T+H Classic Soap for my weekend shaves. Ray's service was great and the support of B+B is just icing on the cake.

Wonderful haul, the Marine Corps Seal especially looks wonderful.

 

[thunderball]

Awesome! Beautiful bowl.

What soap gets the bowl with the EGA?

Easy Answer: Leatherneck

Better Answer: Vintage Old Spice or Williams

Likely Answer: An unsecured puck of very expensive imported soap that the Admiral was using.

Picked up a couple of scores! I have been looking for a Super Speed with a date code of B4, and I found one on the bay, but it was a lot with 2 Techs (which I didn't have) One Tech is a 53, the other is a 65
Also, I found a neat travel Tech (65) with case.

Sorry for the bad pics, but I had to use the phone.

Yep, that is irritating. I remember back in the early 80's the San Jose Flea Market used to be mostly used stuff. Then 5 or so years later, crappy dollar store booths. One after another. Never went back.

I'm having trouble remembering, but I think it was the fair grounds? I know it was south San Jose, but I can't remember if it was the same place as where the super modifieds ran. oh memory is leaking...
