Vintage Erskine No. 3103 shaving brush featuring natural-colored bristles and a gray-green hard-rubber handle.
The bottom is embossed:
* SET IN RUBBER

A neat piece of vintage men’s grooming and barber-shop history. This brush has substantial wear from age and previous use, including widely spread bristles, discoloration, cracking and finish loss. It would display nicely with vintage razors, shaving mugs or barber memorabilia.
