I haven't found the leather yet but am hunting it. I do however like the Skin Bracer hand bottles as you do and have 2 complete sets of right and left

Thanks, good to know. The lady at the thrift store told me it was Wild Country, probably the only scent she knew.
Ha,ha. Good story about the ‘old’ Bay Rum. I see a new dress or some shoes in your future.
D-oh! Talk about stepping in it!

Here's my current bottle collection/overflow aftershave. Not all have A/S in them. Some fragrances don't work for me but I dig the bottle.
Modern frags and Clubman on the right - Avon on the left.

Jackpot. All full and $2.50 each but booth was 30 percent off. 8 bottles for $14.00
2 colognes Oland and Tai Winds. 6 Aftershaves = Excalibur, Leather, Tribute (all new to me) back ups now of Deep Woods, Spicy and Island Lime which is a double backup. Tribute needs decanting as it has a chip under cap leaking and that's why it's standing up. $1.75 each

Wow! What a score, Dave!
I just bought a full bottle of Avon Leather in the George Washington decanter for $8.49 +free shipping on EBay just now. I currently own Avon Black Suede (2000), Bravo (1969) and Oland in the pheasant decanter (1970’s). A friend of mine also gifted me an empty coin decanter that I think used to have Wild Country in it.
Thanks, rare to find that many at once that cheap for me.
Awesome!!!
Great finds and collections gents!
Oh yeah, you can't have too much Island Lime!
Donating one to a friend on another forum. Already boxed to ship.
Nice gesture!
The last bottle I found of the lime was in a used book store!!! Wife was reading some movie biography, so I walked around and ended up near the car repair manuals. There on the shelf were a few Avon car bottles NIB - and one was Lime! Guess the help figured car bottles go with car books, so...Hot diggety!
Here’s a rundown of Avon aftershaves I’ve ordered in the last 24 hours.
Leather
Loverboy
Clint
Spicy (in super shaver decanter)

That is funny! I find it hard to think of 1981 as a long time ago, because that's when I graduated high school.
I was in 1982, 1 year behind you Ted
