Even in the midst of dealing with out of town family issues and returning to AZ to catch up on homelife, Alan took time to send the Ladies Schick and a couple of other items that were thought to be of use to me. Needless to say, I was stunned by the generosity by Alan. Once again, this is the best place on the web.
Huzzah to Alan!!!

I am also a beneficiary of Alan's unbelievable generosity. He contacted me awhile back and offered me an Ever-Ready brush handle that he didn't have time to restore. Of course I took him up on it. Well, today the package arrived and not only did it contain the handle, it also had Schick I1 and B1 injectors! The brush handle is simply gorgeous, I'm going to have to put a little thought into an appropriate knot for it. I don't even know what to say, other than thanks Alan, which doesn't seem adequate.

Alan's like that....I'm another who has been on the receiving end of Alan's generousity....He sent me a ton of Long's Drugs/Personna injector blades awhile back, what a blessing.....And he's also offered me a 1914, 1924, Damaskeene, and Clog-Pruf....I feel like Tom (who is another generous soul),.....what can you say...But thanks.....and Bravo....Its unselfish deeds like these that enriches our quality of life and makes this scene what it is....
Thanks my friend...

Things like this reinforce my belief that this is definitely a gentleman's hobby/endevour.

I think maybe the folks on this forum are a step up from other other forums also. Maybe it's because it has a smaller mambership and we can better help folks. Maybe. I don't know; I'm speculating.
But whatever, well done Alan!

But whatever, well done Alan! I agree 100%. I am a member of a great many forums. Very few if any match up to the generosity and friendliness of this site.

I just received a package from Tom. He sent me some Treets and some Williams Menthol. They will be put to good use.
Thanks Tom, and thanks to everyone for making this site so special. It's home to me.

So I got my package in. Christmas time indeed. Alan was suppose to send a horse hair brush he did not like. So I got that brush. Love it. He also threw in a flying wing. Love it. There was also a wooden bowl with lid and he returned a push button and HFT I had given him. What a guy. Thanks Alan. Attachments:
