The 12th National Shaving Collectibles Meeting is being held on October 10-11 of this year in conjunction with the National Shaving Mug Collectors Association. Collectors and fans of shaving memorabilia will gather with people having similar interests in safety razors, straight razors, shaving mugs, stroppers and hones, razor blades, blade banks, barber bottles, and other shaving related items. See in person those rare collectibles you only read about or see in pictures. Join your fellow collectors in an atmosphere of congeniality, sharing, and stimulating discussions and presentations.

There will be many, many barber and shaving-related items on display for both viewing and purchasing and some special presentations during the meeting:

• The Gillette NEW Series from the 1930s, including the merger of Gillette with Autostrop 
  -Matt Pisarcik

• Provenance and History of Shaving Mugs 
  -Mike Griffin

• Honing & Sharpening of Straight Razors
  -Bob Barna

• For those arriving on Friday, October 9, there will be an informal dinner get-together at a local restaurant.
