About half of the brushes I own and use are over a half century old. Many belonged to my dad or grandfather and others are ones I bought long long ago. For all practical purposes US made shaving brushes as a main line product ceased before 1960. Many of the old US brush makers are still around today but none have made shaving brushes since about 1957; even the ones that still make brushes. Yet the brushes themselves are still fantastic as long as they have been taken care of. That shouldn't be a big surprise, my Kent hairbrush I bought in the 1960s is still in great shape today.
So are there others out there who are using and cherishing shaving brushes from your side of the pond comparable to those I use from this side of the pond?
