Re: The Aftershave


Too bad the mirror frame is wrong... btw looks like Clark Gable... seems like they made those advert-mirrors for all(?) of the "Gone with the Wind" stars. The yellow cases might be show-correct though

Re: The Aftershave


It is becoming clear that the only way to get anything from the shaving kit is via other shaving kits.

Re: The Aftershave


so far the main problem with The Aftershave is the cap to the bottle...the show cap is smooth and black and has been painted biege.....every cap so far including mine is ribbed.....the auction you are bidding on Spike has a ribbed cap too....

I have attempted to find another cap at my local drug stores to no avail so far.....it's a little maddening but I am confident that the correct cap will be found.

Re: The Aftershave


My plan is to hit all the local Goodwills and St. Vincents. I am going to start carrying a cheap set of calipers and the measurements of the cap and start looking for a bottle with the right cap. If it takes me a lifetime, I will find that cap.

But that is the beauty of collecting, is it not? You can never really finish. You can only converge to perfection. Perfection would be a world where room 10 is a reality. That will take some doing.

However, if Borges (the author Paul Workman recommended) is right, there just might be a way to do it. My approach to the problem is a bit less metaphysical—something along the lines of the Garth Jennings version of Hitchhiker’s Guide. Of course, it will probably be impossible to get a permit for that. I’ll bet that when it is possible to build a world government regulation will be out of this world.

But look, the search for the cap has reinvigorated my enthusiasm for the show. That can only be good.

Re: The Aftershave


While looking at a lotion bottle in our bathroom, I came into a plan.

Cosmetics stores contain thousands of bottles with every size and shape of cap. If even one of us finds the right cap, the rest can order the bottle (of whatever).

I think the first place I will try is a Walgreens. I don’t have my bottle yet, but once it comes, I will stop by a Walgreens that is on the way to my job.

I agree...between the desk chair and this cap...plus the fasteeth, the campho etc... we have many years of getting our Objects right !

the fun never ends !!

I can’t tell from that picture. See if you can get the seller to send you more detailed pictures from several angles.
