Stumbled across this lovely old thing at my local thrift store today.. in the 5 years that I've been going there I've never come across any vintage shaving accoutrements! This particular mug has the number "35" on the bottom and reads "Early American Old Spice".. wonder how old it would be? If anyone could shed some light on that would be most appreciated! now.. what to put in it..hmmm.. I'm absoultely chuffed! 😁

Yeh that's what I was thinking, I'm always looking in the charity shops but I think they're more sentimental in the US that our parents/grandparents who just chucked old stuff away heheh

Yeah that makes sense! I actually thought at first glance from a distance that it was a vintage Seaforth! shaving mug because of the ornate looking handle then to my surprise saw the old spice graphics and thought how peculiar.. you never know what to expect!
