    Default Rotation, almost rotation and repairs

    Over the past 2 yrs. my collection has grown.
    The first shots are my current rotation. Row 1 are 25 or so W&B;s, row 4 starts with 11 Ivories ( more in the resto pile) Framebacks, Wosty's, Robesons, DblDucks, and a variety of neat pieces.

    These are useable pieces ,which I have done with quite a few, but some I'd like to restore a bit more for the regular rotation.
    Interesting pieces are the half dozen F. Reynolds, same for Wosty's etc.

    And many, if not most of these are in line for restorations. Sure, some can be used as it,, but I like to have fun with them.

    I wonder how many years worth of daily use you have in that collection.

    Holy razors! I really doubt I will ever amass half of that amount. Sweet collection thanks for sharing, how and where to you store all of them?

    My current goal is a 365 day set. One per day. Granted, I'll use some more often. I'm not quite there yet but should be soon. And when I do, it doesn't mean I'll stop collecting.

    Currently I store them in a drop front secretarial type desk. The upper part houses most of my DE collection which comes close to rivaling this along with the brushes and other memorabilia such as full original cards of razor packs, barbershop signs, etc.

    Man, and I thought I had a problem. Hopefully there's still a market for these things when you retire, because there's your retirement fund! Gorgeous, massive collection.

    Nope,no problem here. Now I know this is geared towards straights,, but here are some DE's and SE'as well. Interesting pieces are the Fold-a-Brush, the Navy military set. Missing are 3 more Fat Boys, two Slim's, my EJ, and a few others still in the bathroom. Next I'll get to brushes and all the other memorabilia.
