Hemingway has been a lifelong favorite author, and I love the scent of the cream and A/S, but the cream is just an average performer. The great looking containers are good enough for me. I'm waiting for someone to come out with a Steinbeck soap.

We may see in our lifetimes, instant classics like Marilyn Mansons "Antichrist Super Soap",
I'm waiting for a popular young band to latch onto classic wet shaving, and then the prices will go sky high... buy now and someday your blades will be worth a fortune! :rofl2:
I don't think Dr. Seuss would go over too well either......would you shave with green soap in a box with a fox?Quote:

Eventually, as I finish the crowd of soaps and creams in my shave den, I'll probably settle down with Martin de Candre, Castle Forbes, Baum.Be, D.R. Harris and Mitchell's Wool Fat. My face loves these products.
There is an abundance of top line shave soaps and creams already, legendary names, that, with couple exceptions, blow away artisan products. That's why I approach artisan products with caution; I've spent a fortune on them and come away disappointed.
