Thread: Shaving Collectibles Extravaganza

Hi Guys,

We have agreed to participate in a get together this year on 10/9 and 10/10 in West Chester, OH (Near Cincinnati). This should be a really great event this year as it is being sponsored by the National Shaving Collectibles folks, The National Shaving Mug Collectors Association and Straight Razor Place.

We are looking for a few people who would like to lead a discussion or do a presentation/demonstration on anything from beard prep to shaving to honing or anything else related. If interested let me know, please.

Here is the link Welcome to Adobe GoLive 6

I went to this event last year and had a lot of fun. Looking forward to seeing some of you guys there this year.

Let me know if any questions.

Thanks,

Lynn

Count me in for attending. Not sure what I could add or contribute though. I'll think about that in the meantime and get back with you.

Jerry

Awesome!!

I was talking to Jerry from Shaving Collectibles and they are looking forward to some demonstrations on honing and shaving along with some straight razor discussion and q&a's.

Should be a lot of fun.

Is this open to the public? This is only 30-40 minutes away from my house.

It sure is. Still may be an admission charge. I'm not in charge of that......lol, but I think it includes lunch, prizes, drawings and stuff.

I really enjoyed it last year and there should be a ton more to look at and hear this year.

I missed last year, but I'll be at this one!!

HI Guys,
I'm available & is doable for me distance wise. Hope there will be a chair WITH headrest, can do all the shaves you want!!

Just received a request to see who would like to do a presentation at this get together. It can be on any straight razor topic......History, shaving demo, restoration, honing........

If any one is interested, please let me know so I can pass it on. I am committed to do a demonstration too.

Thanks guys,

Lynn
