October 2018 Acquisitions

Nice one. I also just picked one up and it's beautiful, but I have no idea how old it is. I've uploaded a short YouTube video featuring my Leresche, (Shave with Dave) and I'd be grateful if anyone could give me some information.

I would guess 1940's, as far as I know all Leresche product catalogues from the 30's and earlier only show straight razors.

You've probably already seen it but Darkbulbs thread is worth a read: https://theshaveden.com/forums/threads/the-leresche-51-luxe.44249/

Looking forward to my first shave with this brush:

Bottle of Gillette Cool Wave circa 2010 and old enough to still have real oakmoss in the mix. Lovely!

Super easy to lather, nice scent and very cheap off eBay. Altogether a very nice shave!

I decided, as a newbie to all this stuff, that I should try a cream as well as soap, so just taken advantage of OSPs 30% discount to get a tub of their Fougere cream.

I decided, as someone who has enough soap and cream to last decades, to order some more

Some vintage Gillette Swedes arrived today. I traded some Light Brigades for them, just to have a little more variety.
