Well, it's good that you got it without a bidding war.

Where do you find this great stuff. Excellent catches. Got them either from the french bay or from the british one. The Ever Ready Jewel (i assume is a Jewel model because of the metal case) was part of a lot listed as SR Boxes & Strops (US seller on the bay). Found it a few minutes before the auction ended while searching for a Torrey Lather Catcher (the lot included a retractable strop from that manufacturer). Thankfully i was the only bidder or i did won by the minimum (just 50 cents over the starting price). I still don't understand why no one else bade for the Le Touring, that one is as beautiful as my floral ornate Star LC.

The lot of razors I got the other day came in. The Schick G3 is beautiful. There was also a pushbutton, a fairly nice OCMM, a User grade 1924, a better looking 1924 in a decent case, a Shick G8 and I. I also got a couple of interesting unmentionables. All for a grand total of $40 with shipping. I feel good about that!!

That is a sweet set. It would be nice indeed if a TOSTer got it.

I will start of April’s Haul with an Auto Strop A1. This is in a bit better shape than my first one. On an Auto Strop note. Not sure if a member won the Beautiful A2 on eBay today. I was watching that one. It went for a very reasonable price. Love me some Autostrop razor!! Beautiful A1 Tom. Used a VC1 this morning with a modified Gem SS and got a WONDERFUL shave. I love this thing.
