Hello again, B&Bers!

For this SOTD Theme Week, let’s see your Vintage shaving gear! Show us your old Gillette, Schick and Rolls razors, your vintage soaps, blades, aftershaves/colognes, brushes, scuttles or anything else vintage that is shaving related!

This week‘s theme is easy… post pics of your old shaving stuff! If there is an interesting story around the acquisition of said gear, we’d love to hear about it.

If you don’t have anything themed, post pics of your usual SOTD or just tell us about it! Or maybe cheat a little and show a vintage watch or fragrance. Maybe a 1959 Gibson Les Paul? How about a bottle of 1961 Bordeaux or 1970 Vintage Port? Just have some fun with it!👍

As always, being creative and having fun IS mandatory but sticking with the theme is NOT mandatory but very strongly encouraged.

Let’s see your Vintage SOTD!

P.S. if you are a fan of boar brushes, pop by to say hi in the DecemBOAR thread. All boar, all December. 🐗 🐽 🐽 🐷 🐖 🐗 DecemBOAR 2024!!! Boar Brushes Only for all of December!!! 🐽 🐷 🐖 🐗 - https://www.badgerandblade.com/forum/threads/decemboar-2024-boar-brushes-only-for-all-of-december.660185/

This is the third shave with the Henson AL13++ Razor and the PolSilver Super Iridium blade. It was another smooth and close shave. Today’s brush is the B&B Essential Boar. This brush was perfect in size and function. It allowed me to load the soap more easily. I did not have to scoop any soap to get a better lather. The Monsavon soap is on its 38th use. There are only a few more shaves left in the soap. It was a perfect shave. Have a great day, folks.
