@Nightguard - you are killing me! I've been accumulating vintage blades over the last few months, and wilkies are bloody hard to find.
Well done.

eBay of course. Actually took a gamble on these as these only info listed was that they were wilkinson blades.
And yes, I am a bastard. I payed under $100.00 for these. And have just bought another 300.

Thanks for the clarification on the stock availabilities @todras and @shavetheman. It's really nice to hear some detailed information regarding the matter.
Correct me if I am wrong but I don't ever recall seeing snakebite or lavender pucks or the lavender aftershave at The Stray Whisker.
I may put in an order this weekend from fine accoutrements and pick up a lather bowl also and if possible an American Blend puck or two if they are still available.

I rather liked the packaging. It's amazing how anyone could put a copyright on something so generic in this line of business, it seems as silly as having a copyright on an image of a straight razor. Essentially this is all over an array of colours placed in pattern of which represents a common fixture in this field which has been used for centuries... Remarkable! Does anyone have the copyright over sliced bread... milk... bottle caps... Ooo BLUE BOTTLE CAPS!!

This is my humble contributions to this great thread. I have a few more things on the way.
My compliments to The Stray Whisker.

Some 'Business Casual' Shirts - variable length sleeves, will see how they go:



Shaving related advertising - another side AD ...



(Not covered by sabbatical I think!)

Nice shirts. I myself like blue and white shirts more than other colors. Those vintage adverts look amazing. Good find.

Looks very nice. I love tallow and Lanolin soaps.

Would it be inappropriate to say that Nighty got a whole bunch of wilkies ?

Yeah, but @Nightguard is a fine upstanding bloke, worthy of honour and respect, a true gentlemen good bloke and great enabler. He truly reflects the generous spirit of P&C and I for one humbly bow at the feet of the master.

Well with a little help from the fine @Nightguard it seems that I have 1,440 of these coming my way ...

Not exactly sure how that happened but ...

I'm not sure if @Monsta_AU will NOW bestow a 'Grand Society' banner on me or double the size of the sabbatical fail ...

You guys have started a cult in my absence.

What lofty goal qualifies you as "Grand Society"?

Absence? This has been around for a while. 500 Vintage blades or 1000 moderns in one transaction.
