New find today

[Dboygoode]

So today there was an art festival in town (a very small town) and I was walking around the square. I decided to go into the local antique shop and see what they had (shaving related of course

I seen a glass case from a distance and I knew I had found some DE razors. It doesn't happen often around here. There was an old SE I couldnt name, but there was also a fat handled tech and a ball end tech. Needless to say I bought both gillettes...for $10. As I'm fairly new to DE shaving, did I get a good deal? Regardless I like them, and for ten bucks not bad IMO.

It was a happy afternoon

Five bucks a piece sounds like a fine deal to me! Good condition? Photos?

The two silvers are the ones i got today. The "New" i found a couple weeks ago. This is my Gillette family, and i feel safe to say that it will grow quickly.

They're in decent shape, just cleaned with soap and a tooth brush. Im not complaining.

oh and sorry for the quality. iPad cameras aren't great.

NICE FIND! for 5 each, you can't beat that deal with a stick! Some simple green and an old toothbrush, and then a little mothers chrome polish or flitz and those will be slicker than goose crap on a pump handle.
Yeah, I just said that.

That has been my experience in Iowa as well. Lots of old straights and plenty of mugs, but nothing DE related. Certainly nothing like your excellent score.

Nice razors. Start with the Techs and graduate to the New. Those are all the razors a man ever needs (though I'm sure you'll find many more).
