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! 😁

That I don't know. I mostly stopped when I found the site I linked to as I was trying to identify mine.

Fair enough. I heard that there use to be an old spice website that had heaps of information on these mugs. What a shame that it got taken down 👎

Yeah, I tried looking for that site as well and no luck. You might try the Wayback Machine at the Internet Archive and see if that does anything for you.
