For the ariel collector who already has everything.
Yesterday a neighbour brought over this stein that he had fished out of the glass collection. He said it would certainly be missing in my garage.

You can find the exciting story behind this tea clipper on the www.

Not a rare antique I'm afraid to say. These came with old spice aftershave sets a while ago.

Pondering why a man with a beard was buying Old Spice - any comment Mr Silson? :-)

I used aftershave for my shaved head - although I was more a Brut man myself (as recommended by Barry Spleen himself).

I've used Old Spice since I started shaving as a teenager (60 years) . . How sad is that !

Never mind the aftershave - a fine ship that had a short career and a tragic end!
