Apologies for the 'Dad' joke in the title.
A great week with the mail person.
A cute but nondescript little box

... that was worth 17 shillings and six-pence

Oh look, how cute!

It is a little toy shaving brush! It was clearly what was worth 17/6
![[Image: bdfb9a2c6ab049f3f473_5.jpg]]()
But it really is 'wee' (small, tiny) with dimensions of:
Handle diameter 22mm
Knot diameter 13mm
Handle height 26mm
Loft 35mm
Overall height 61mm
I knew that the 'Wee Scott' was 'wee' but I wasn't expecting THIS small.
To give some idea of comparative size here are some of my other butterscotch Simpsons (taken straight out of my rotation so showing the effects of use)

All lined up they are (L - R): No. 10, No. 41, M1, B2, The Duke, Wee Scott

Same again but without The Duke

Not sure what to do with this one. I wanted to try one and knew they were small - but this is smaller than I expected!
