    Default Antique Old Spice stuff!!

    Anyone into antique Old Spice bottles and mugs like me?

    Its a fun eBay hobby, and you can pick up the items for "usually" pretty cheap, and they make wonderful functional bathroom items. I ran across a very good website to help you out - if you need to "date" an Old Spice mug!!!
    I have SEVERAL of the OLD ceramic mugs. Got one for a few dollars on eBay!!!

    I have one of the old ceramic mugs myself. Got it from a local shop for $6.00 and it works great.

    They are good soap mugs for sure. I like they're not too tall. Helps keep from banging the brush on the sides.

    I too have enjoyed this website and my Old Spice mugs. Just one note for everyone about these mugs, DO NOT put them in the microwave. Stupid me I learned the hard way. I was trying that improved Williams shave soap receipe...

    Glen,

    Not to hijack this thread, but if you threw a puck of Williams in the microwave, unless you made some alterations to it, the results will never be good. In it's solid form, Williams doesnt't melt down like glycerine soaps.

    I think 'puck' is probably the right word for it - but you can't beat that lemony-fresh $0.97 each.

    But yeah, as RT said, you probably got a bad combination of the solid non-glycerine soap and the non-microwave safe mug. Sorry for your loss.

    As for me, I have a gazillion mugs at home, but none of them are specific shaving mugs, and none are specifically old spice.

    I was just following one of the posts on the old Yahoo site. It said to add Olive oil too your Williams soap...

    Thanks Glen
