Mine is a picture I took that I like, A cake of Williams with a short wood handle lather catcher. I also have the same picture on one of my Williams mugs.
Thanks!!!!

My Avatar is of a Gem Zinn -- it was a grail razor for me, and it still brings me great joy. The razor took a proprietary blade (back in the day), but an injector blade works perfectly fine with it. It is an open comb lather catcher with a beautifully turned wooden handle, and red satin lined case -- this beauty ticks a lot of boxes for me. I think this is the original picture (and I included a picture of the "business end" with a Jayaruh brush...it's the one that is almost always used when I use this razor)

Beautiful set there. Those handles are just out of this world.
