Nice shaver and goodies!
I have one of those atomic Ronson electric shavers, but it comes in a different case. I bought mine at a church rummage sale in Riverside, CA years ago.
Unfortunately none of the paper goodies came with it, and its missing the cord.
The shaver itself is clean and damage free.
I first saw a picture of one of these in the book "POPULUXE" by Thomas Hine.
If anybody wants to trade for it, PM me. G

That is EXACTLY what inspired me to search for a complete working one, under $15...It took some time, but persistence prevailed.
Thanks for the compliments on the find. Now if I could only find replacement screens for backup, I'd be golden and less scared to use it! It is in almost new condition, aside from a small(but to the wire), crack in the cord around the shaver end adaptor. Didn't scare me enough to not try it out though! haha

Picked this up today. 1939 World's Fair "Saturn lamp" in pink frosted depression glass and in great shape. Good old thrift store find. I hope this one will help out my layoff economic situation as these are fairly rare.

Picked up a few programs for the Cubs today. The ones shown date from 1965, 66, 67. I loved the artwork on these. The last pic is of the backs as they are all the same.

I got this about 2-3 years ago. I thought I'd share as it is my best thrift store find.
Marked Brown-Saltman desk. It's bleached mahogany veneer. In really good shape with just a cigar/cigarette burn on the top.
I'm going to make my fellow Camarillans jealous as I found this at Goodwill for $40. Yes, that's not a typo.
It was like buying a genuine $100 bill for $4.95.
Got a Brown-Saltman night stand too.
So incredible finds are still out there.

lol@ "Classy Freddy Blassie"...That is older than old skool wrestling! Late 70s to early 80s were a trip, musically speaking! So much confusion, even pro wrestlers had albums!ha hah hah.
