October 2018 Acquisitions

My Timeless 0.68 OC and SB Scallop just arrived, literally ordered at 13.26 Wednesday, shipped at 16.51 Wednesday, arrived Friday in just less than two full days from America to Ireland at 12.13 , insane speed, faster than lightning.

Thanks to Timeless and DHL Express. Expected Monday, but as I payed the customs early this morning, they released it - sweet.

First pictures..

A nice old razor that I bought a few weeks ago. I thought the marks near the edge may give me problems, turned out to be nothing much and it shaves just fine.

I suppose you could email Gillette. I'd do it, but I'm only mildly curious and can't be bothered... :D
G'day @Rob998 and @SpeedyPC
I have a fondness for shaving history in the '60 and '70s; this ad for the Gillette Super Stainless provides the answer you seek. It was several years later that they eventually branded the blades with the terminology 'The Spoiler' on the packaging.

Fantastic, I suppose they must have carried on with the theme for a while for the name to make sense.

Must try and get hold of a pack or 2 to try.
