Hello Ron,

Lucky acquisition for sure! Very nice!

On Friday, my wife and I found out we're having a boy this coming June. While she was out shopping for clothes and bedding today, she surprised me with this for the little guy:

This new EDT bottle may catch on with the big three!
Certainly to become a collector's piece!

Richard, I'm busting to get my mitts on those Arko soap bars. Where did you find them?

Only $1.99 a piece. Very fast shipping, very good email correspondence, buy with confidence.

Here is what the soap stick looks like in my covered ceramic soap bowl (from classicshaving.com):

Richard, I think I'm going to order some. I hear it's so good, and that it smells beautiful. I wonder how it compares to stuff like Taylors or DR Harris or perhaps Crabtree & Evelyn. I received some bad news that a hard soap that I love called Gold-Dachs Spezial is no longer available. Man, does that ever **** me off. I've lost so many brands that I've enjoyed because they were discontinued. I'm sure going to miss this beautiful soap when it's finished, in the meantime I'll probably only shave once a month with it. Thanks again for your info!!
