A Gillette 7 O'Clock Razor in Tin Case - Scrubbed up well and came with a still sealed pack of the original blades.
Leresche Razor - Not sure of the model but 99% sure that's not it's original case.
Personna Double II - I've got a nice NOS case which I don't want to open so these are to satisfy curiosity and try out.

There's something really nice about 7 O'Clock razors.
As an aside, did you know that 7 O'Clock was a trademark of AutoStrop (you know, Valet) prior to Valets and some decades before 7 O'Clock the company?

I've just seen your SOTD with it. Interesting looking piece.
They're nice razors, shave well and have great looking tins that don't go for much money. No brainer IMO.

Here are the two new arrivals:

Received another vintage, American shaving brush in fixer-upper condition.
This one was $7 which seems to be the rough price give or take $5 for these types of brushes.
Now, I know that these types of brushes is not everyone's cup of tea (or brush for that matter) but personally I really like them - and they are all different in some way.
These guys have some personality
The brush I received is a Sta-Fast:

I like them a lot, I got a NOS Fuller brush which works very nicely, but the handle isn't as striking as this.Received another vintage, American shaving brush in fixer-upper condition.

I'm thinking Harry Styles is the one on the far right.....
Dunno....sometime in 2016... Will be really interesting to see them brought back to life. I'm still debating if I want to keep the original boar-knot-look or go all posh with some badgers.
