    Default Lets have a contest!!!!

    Well, we have this group buy going on sponsored by the site and owing to the fantastic efforts of our dedicated staff but being as how the economy is and knowing some folks might be a little stretched these days we should have an opportunity for folks to win something for free.

    So lets have a brush photography contest.

    Now I'm not concerned if you got that fancy Nikon camera with a zillion pixels and you used to be a professional photo guy working for some dirty movie outfit or if you own Louis the 14th personal shave brush encrusted with precious gems.

    What I want to see is what you be doing with your shaving brush. All entries will be judged for originality of thought and if you get arrested while doing it well that will be a plus-har har.

    Final judgement will be by...well...me and whatever other mods I can corral into doing this.

    Staff is not eligible to win anything though they can still enter for fun.

    So what can you win?

    First prize will be a gently used Vulfix Super Badger Shave brush around 26mm (I had planned on using it myself but after I caught Festus lathering up Baaaby with it I changed my mind. But I know you guys don't care about a few fleas)

    Second Prize will be a vintage but unused Boar brush more modest in size with wood handle

    Third prize will be a vintage style Lord Nelson Pottery Co. Shave Mug made in Merry old England.

    So we'll start the contest now and let it run until Max says the group buy brushes are ready to ship.

    You can put your photos right in this thread.

    Don't be confused. it's really simple. Whatever you do with your brush, if you think the photo will win for you then go for it. Remember, originality.

    I have a great idea for this one. I just need to wait until my day off to get something posted. Hopefully I can pull it off, I'm not a great photographer.
