My wife and I spent the weekend in the shenandoah valley celebrating our 31st anniversary. On Saturday we came across a small flea market which turned out great for me. Loads of vintage DE razors and a few SEs. But the real finds were the new with some in boxes Avon and Old Spice decanters. All were had for under $10. Thanks to HoosierTrooper for pushing me along the decanter collecting trail with all those thrift store pictures. First Up is the Red Sentinel with Wild Country after shave and Talc. Send is the Avon Stop-N-Go full of Spicy after shave and the Pilot Wheel full of vintage Old Spice.

Awesome! But I gotta warn you, it's a dark path you're starting down...

Great! Like I need another AD! Now I want some of those cool OS decanters.

As predicted, I have an Old Spice Lighthouse and an OS Admiral on the way. I think if I limit myself to just OS decanters, I should be ok. Having been in the Navy, their nautical theme is welcomed.

...And now I have the nautical telegraph on the way. I think I will look for the ship's wheel and call it off for a while.

Just picked up the ship's wheel decanter. I think I may be done.

I love that site and used it many times. None of the other designs really appeal to me.
