Scotty,
Very nice scores, as usual! I always enjoy seeing your razors.

scottydoint: Holy crap! Well done sir!
I scored these on an on-line auction for D.Kr. 125 (approx. $ 25) the other day:
Two 75 ml bottels of Shulton formula Old Spice afttershave, both 90% full.
One of the bottles says both Shulton and Procter & Gamble, but the scent is, as far as my nose can tell, Shulton formula.
Regards.
Jakob

After waiting for like forever (well only 9 days) I finally got my Gillette Empire Pocket Edition.
Here are some shots before cleaning
Here's what this beauty looks like after a bit of cleaning
(you can even see me taking the picture
)
The were some Gillette Thin blades on the blade box, they look really nice (with a nice coating on them)
Those were the days when companies used to pay attention to detail.

Well gents, I just returned from 3 weeks in Europe as I was married and on honeymoon. Picked up a few things along the way...
Had a devil of a time finding blades in Italy as I carried on my luggage going over. Gillette double blade disposables, on the other hand, are abundant. I had some single bladed bics just in case I couldn't find razorblades. Eventually found those in a knife store. Later I found some Swiss G's but passed due to the price they had them for. The small hand painted bowl was purchased where I was married in Capri for use with my travel C&E brush. It worked perfect.
My main focus was to pick up aftershaves, they had a ton to choose from. There is a great shop very near the Trevi Fountain in Rome. There is also a perfumer next to the Pantheon. They had brushes and Trumpers. They actually had a display brush that was about a foot tall.
We also went to Norway. I couldn't locate any Norwegian after shaves, but it does seem that Nivia has a stronghold on the world market. I pick up that black bowl in Norway as my new lather bowl.
I did end of finding an independent soap and aftershave producer but they were to far to go myself. They did however mention they are working on an english website. I let them know about the forum and they may show up in the vendors corner soon.

Spent a pleasant morning in Chicago today and dropped by Merz and picked up a 100 ml Trumpers Extract of Limes Skin food and a few bath products.
