Thread: A nice day at the Antiques Fair

The Army and Navy has a beautiful patina on both sides. I'm going to leave the patina.
I'll get a closer look at the scales on the first one when I get home. The scales are very thin and I thought collarless, at least on the wedge pin. I'll post some better pics of that one next weekend.

Another very nice day at the monthly antiques fair.

The FBU is particularly nice. It will need scales, but the blade is a beauty.

Get R Done Brian.
Too cold for antique fairs here.

Nice score once again, Mrchick! Aren't there any other razor hawks flying around that antiques fair you go to or are you the only one? You seem to get 'em first, that's the way to be!!! I'm like outback right now, it's too cold and snowy here but the season is approaching and then it's gonna be full on huntin' mode.

No, there are other hawks around. I've been lucky. The FBU and two others were sitting on a shelf next to some dishes. I spotted them and couldn't pull my money out fast enough when we settled on a price[emoji3]

I went to my barbershop for a haircut this morning and guess what? The antiques shop next door was having a parking lot sale. I had to look[emoji12]
Found some treasures.

The four pound Noxema shaving cream is NOS and says "For Barber trade only" on it. The cream has solidified but it looks good in my den.

I like the spine on the High Class by C.F Schwartz. I'm hoping I can clean it up without ruining the gold wash.

My haircut cost a little more than usual[emoji3]

Stop it.!!!
I don't know how much more I can take, I haven't been hunting since November and boating season is fast to come, which will put me back to 52- 60 hrs a week and leave only Sundays to hunt. Most antique stores and flea makets are closed on that day around here. [emoji31]

Being as I live in a small isolated area with no antique shops or flea markets I have to say I am a little envious of any opportunities to even hunt. Looks like your hunting has been very successful again. Nice haul.

You are a lucky dog I tell ya. I need to devote a day to wild razor shopping. Congrats
