    Default Some Recent Wild Finds

    Hi folks, I recently returned from a weeks Holiday in Las Vegas, Nevada which is a long way from cold and miserable Scotland. While there I managed to fit in some time to search for shaving related goodies. I hope you like my finds.

    A selection of brushes one of which is a Mohawk from Canada and is pretty neat.

    Next is a cased 1949 Gillette Superspeed which appears unused, the blade pack still has the cellophane on it, the best but I managed to get $2 off the sticker price :-)

    Another Gillette this time Lady Blue Star, cased and in really nice shape.

    I hope you have enjoyed looking at these pictures, I did pick up some other things but don't seem to have the pictures just now.

    Cheers.

    Vegas being known for the gambling, I'd say you hit the jackpot ! Beauteous DEs and nice haul on the brushes too.

    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.
