EUREKA !!! I have just restarted the age of miracles.
TOTALLY ECLIPSES

Arrived today One Eclipse Red Ring razor. Type W. 1932 when I was born the first time.
Handle is engraved "Eclipse" on one side and "Red Ring" on the other. The ring is gone but nail polish and a toothpick will soon fix that.
It is a beauty with dirty brassy coloured handle. It cleaned up with Silvo.
Sterilized. Bathed. Shined. Fed. Ready for tomorrow morning.
Here is my photo of two eclipses. The sun and moon with mine (in front). Better ones tomorrow.

It looks damp. You get a shave with it already? I'm glad youre digging it buddy, you were a pleasure doing business with.

My largest single haul of brushes. From a storage locker sale, 14 brushes, 3 Sommerset Simpsons and 11 Vulfix private lable. The Simpson brushes include a Polo 12, Polo 14 and a Chubby 3. All are in incredible condition and some of the softest brushes I ever felt. To get them in the house, SWMBO claimed one for use as a makeup brush.

BLADE: Wilkinson
PASSES: Two & touch up
BOWL: Michal Yoresh Electric

The largest haul at one time I ever found. All private label Simpson brushes. Most iconic models are there, chubby, polo, emperor, Wee Scot and Major. Some not sure about the shapes but all are in unbelievable condition and super soft knots. Came from a storage locker sale. Now comes the hard part, I need to explain this to SHMBO.
