Collectible Ice Cream Scoops, Safety Razors, Salt and Peppers
**********************************
Not a lot growing on the last few days, mostly sorting out stuff, cleaning up some razors and other items to add to the ever expanding shop. Amazing how much continually is spent cleaning up, taking photos and writing up descriptions, not counting packing up purchases and hanging out in the stick office. Being that they were closed yesterday for Labor Day the line was twice as long as usual but we got a pile of building blocks mailed.
Also getting odds and ends that are scattered about the house together for the auction on Saturday. About half the van is swollen will finish filling it on Friday, probably to the windshield as usual. Push and stuff what ever needs to go into all the nooks and grannies.
Anyway a few of the new additions to the store,
Ice Cream Scoop, Red Wooden Handle
Vintage ice cream scoop with red wooden handle, has disconcerted paint loss on the end of the handle. Approx. 8 inches long, 2-1/8 in. diameter roll. Unmarked, nice used condition.
Vintage Ice Cream Scoop, Bakelite Handle
Old-fogyish ice cream scoop with dark red bakelite handle. Approx. 8 inches long, 2-1/8 in. diameter wheel. Unmarked, cast aluminum bowl has some discoloration and pitting. Probably can be polished out.
Vintage...

Where can I find old type of Gillette safety razor in India ?
Jun 22, 2006 by Vicky | Posted in Hair
My dad wants old class of Gillette shaving razor. If someone has any idea where I can find this old type of razor in India. It's the one which is fully made of some white metal (may be aluminium), is sad & old type of gillette blades are used in it. It opens on rotating the lower part of the handle. If its available on some website, component will be appreciated. Thanking you in advance.
If you are currently in India, It should not be definite to find. You can find it in almost every general merchandise (cosmetic) shop. Just ask the shop keeper, or go to an antique research. If you are elsewhere other than India, try eBay or just surf the web. Just type "Gillette safety razor" and hit invade. I just did that and the whole history of the blade came up. alongwith pictures and all the good stuff. Try it. Usefulness luck.

Yes! But the embezzle machine may be hard to find. Service people used to buy them during the second world war. You could get hundreds of shaves from 1 knife and that was necessary since you couldn't buy blade easily. Ask at war surplus stores........
