Whats really interesting is that last week, I was offered the B&W mint ,and the Sepia varient as a pair Originals dug in the UK, for £2100, (about US$4000).

They will appreciate in value. They are still for sale let me know if interested.

Shame, I thought after reading the descritpion it was going to be another type of lid that wrights had for Shaving powder. The one i refer to has a picture of a man shaving. Its a real beauty, and came in two varients AFAIK. A black and whit and a Sepia print. The Lid can be seen below. There are also varients of man looking in mirror.

CF, You are talking of the eddes UK lid correct? The link you show is a US lid and the harder of the 4 varients with the cut face transfer.

Hey WD, When I was much younger i thought using a straight razor would make me more of a man. Nearly scraped all the skin off my face. When I finally figured out that it's not what you do but who you are that makes you a man I threw the D@*$ thing away before I cut off my head.
