    Back on the forum after a long while...and a new find

    Ain't that the truth! It really looks good on the shelf..but a little lonely. I'll definitely keep my eye out for more. Thanks Jim for the info.

    Thanks Spirit, it's good to be back. Yeah it says that and another word that is pretty much impossible to say, lol.

    Back on the forum after a long while...and a new find

    I was on here a long while ago and now I'm back..if anyone noticed, lol. I dropped by a Salvation Army the other day and came across this nice seltzer siphon bottle. It was made in Budapest, Hungary and it's stamped 1940, it also says Toth Jozsef Maza on the front. This is my first siphon...

    Really Old Gillette Razor

    I don't know if there's a blade in it still, but I need to give it a WD-40 bath and see. Its a pretty nice one too, its heavy for such a small razor. I need it to work though, ill have a beard in no time if it doesn't, haha.

    Really Old Gillette Razor

    Lol, they tell you that because they probably don't really know much either. How can you tell them apart?? That marble is pretty sweet though, I'd love to have one with a bear or any animal in it.

    Hey Spirit, here's the marble I found yesterday that I promised a pic of.

    Really Old Gillette Razor

    Alright I will, but tomorrow, I'm hitting the sack now. BTW, how exactly does a turtle "run away"??? Lol. And isn't a bear supposed to have a nose that's 5 times better than a hound dog? Couldn't you just sniff out where he went? ;-)

    Really Old Gillette Razor

    Hey Spirit, I almost forgot..I found one lonely marble out there today too, just an eyeball find. You're into marbles right?

    Really Old Gillette Razor

    Haha, fortunately I can say that has never happened. With my space age 5 bladed vibrating Gillette razor I never get cut, unlike the poor sap who had to use the razor that I found, lol.

    Really Old Gillette Razor

    Well they still make really fancy, really expensive ones just like this...but I found this in an area where everything else was from the 20's and 30's. And botlguy I totally agree, I'm sooo glad I didn't have to shave with a single blade back in the day, I'd probably end up slitting my own...

    Really Old Gillette Razor

    So I went back to my favorite dump site where I've found a bunch of bottles, this time with my metal detector, and look what I dug up. It may not be worth much but its a pretty sweet find anyway. Any ideas as to the age of this razor?

    Road down to the antique store today...

    Nice pick-ups there Spirit! How old is that National Geographic Photograph book?

    Mystery Vial

    Thanks! I'm just surprised it survived this long without being broken to bits, because its really thin glass. Plumbata, any chance of posting a pic of your vial??

    Mystery Vial

    Hey guys, I found this little vial in the same hole as I referenced in my previous posts. It has no markings of any kind that I can see. Any ideas? Is it just a generic vial from back in the day or something else?
