    Check out the first post in this thread and you'll see why it was sent away. Vulfix bought Simpson out years ago now. They are doing a great job. I was afraid the brand would be a pale imitation, but they make great brushes completely unlike their Vulfix line.
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    That's my brush in the pic Jimmie. This is Simpsons pic that they posted on instagram when they completed the restore on my brush.


    TinTin, Found this guy at an antique store a little over a month ago. Wanted to have it restored properly with the badger hair it deserved. Cost me some good coin but I think it was well worth it. Don't think you'll see another like it........ Well you might if you look close enough at Bobs SOTD posts. Bob's 105 stamped handle, him and I believe it to be the next size down in this same line of brushes.

    Just confirms I was right yet again ! ....................
