    Came across an old pic of Frank Sinatra shaving.
    Looks like he is using a double edge.
    Hard to read exactly what his products are - other than the vitalis hair tonic.
    Appears that he is using a brushless shaving cream in a tube. Maybe noxema?
    My father was an engineer. He used to tell me that sharpening a straight razor is like trying to build a ladder to the moon out of a roll of aluminum foil.

    Looks like Ol' Blue Eyes liked to splash on a bit of Witch Hazel?

    Are you sure it's him?

    He looks older there and why would he be shaving in a public restroom with cheap products. I mean at that point he was a zillionaire.

    It's definitely him, taken at the Eden Roc Hotel, Miami, in 1965.

    From the tree-looking thing on one bottle, maybe Pino Silvestre?

    Cheers, Steve

    Looks more like the Sea Breeze logo to me.
