Wow. Lucky you @JohnnieTime !

@malocchio you have the most wonderful toys!

We old guys suffered for years in the 80's and 90's until internet shopping opened up the entire planet for great shaving products...

From this morning’s flea market, a full lighthouse with some soapy friends. The refill and the soap on a road joined the mugs I scored a few months ago

I always wanted that green lantern!

No, not the Veg. I wouldn't have been able to answer that a few weeks ago but I ran across a bottle at a flea market recently. My wife is still taking about a divorce .

I'm really not good at describing smells but it's not lavender or powder. It's mild but not weak, it's very familiar but I can't put my finger on it. It's very appealing to my nose.

I bought a bottle of this back in 2007 I’m just recently getting back into the “art” of shaving I remember saying it smells like petroleum jelly/Vaseline but I heard someone say play-doh and I agree.

Very cool especially the AV bottle. Are those two Old Spice bottles sample bottles? Do you know how old they are? Never seen the purple cap.

I'm not sure about the origin of the small Old Spice bottles, as I bought them used. They have a date of 1991 stamped on the back of them. The lids are actually a gray color, the picture doesn't show the exact correct color.
