The Exorcist movie review & film summary (1973) | Roger Ebert

Bought this lot. All under £3 each.



Was also WS soap and blades and Brut AS, but I already have all of those unopened.

Old Spice AS for under £7, and Tabac AS we're both available, along with The Edger DE razors and various cheap brushes.

Not too bad....
