New guy from the States

[rev579]

Hello from East Texas! I joined after reading some posts related to vintage shaving gear. Interaction means moving past the "lurking" stage. I am probably a geek because I like data and details. "But why" has now evolved into, "Help me understand...". I'm cool with international post/mailing, though I'd rather make an international exchange in person.
I do have a full compliment of Vintage US Gillette Razors. Pretty diverse brush collection too.
Here is a recent SOTD

As an aside, I spent a week in the Cotswolds and found the coolest old church in Oddington. But my coolest find while there won it all!

Thanks y'all. Still wading through the waters here. Nice history!

Early Brit Single Ring, nice!

Thanks @TobyC . From what I have read, it's from 1907, but a US razor. This came as a huge surprise to me, there aren't any Brit Numbers or markings. G 84363 on the knob. I'd love to see good markings on a British Smooth Handle.

Yep, '07, very cool.

I suppose you've seen this one?

 

[rev579]

Yes @TobyC , that is where I learned they even existed. When I saw it I was shocked.
