Question what lid do you have on the Old Spice mug? Inner lid of a mason jar?

Yeppers. It is a widemouth inner lid. They're a pretty good fit.

Thank you Sir I have been struggling to find a solution and you nailed it!

Picked up this awesome Shaving Mug/Scuttle and Brush from a local Facebook Marketplace seller. They are both made of pewter, luckily the kind that has no lead in it. As far as I can tell from googling. the brush dates to around 1927!? If anyone knows more about pewter, I'd love to know.

The mug has a few scratches and a little bit of pitting, but for the most part it is in wonderful condition.

The mug is absolutely gigantic! Here it is compared to an Old Spice Mug.

The brush is a real surprise, it has a little pitting on one side that should come out with the buffer and a small ding on the base. I thought for sure it's knot was a goner, but once I had it in my hands, I found it to be solid. I've already washed it 3 times with dove soap, shampoo and conditioner. It seemed almost unused and only lost 8 hairs though the cleaning process. I can't imagine it is from 1927, but maybe??? I think I'll use it for my next shave. It has a nice pure/best badger and it smells fine, no wet dog smell at all.

Here's a shot of the makers mark.

Some quick shipping put another OS mug and used soap in my hands. Going to need to clean this one, but it still has a light scent.

She wasn’t all that nice, I threw her an extra $0.50, because I didn’t have any change. I wasn’t interested in giving her less, I had competition lol
