This makes me think of all the Searcy experts who help me with this blog.
It is an Avon Super Sleuth Magnifier which has a handle that screws onto the magnifying glass and is called Everest After Shave. The after shave is still in the handle and contains alcohol! Age is not stated but it has been in my attic for many years. Searcy Sleuths, can you help with this vintage item? This blog is a tribute to all of you and I do like the artwork! You are a handsome group!!
There's quite a history of Avon products here. I had a truck bottle of men's cologne at one time. The vintage 1979 Avon EVEREST SUPER SLEUTH MAGNIFIER GLASS with 2 fl oz of EVEREST After Shave can be had on eBay for $10 plus shipping.
Nice find in the attic , Barbara. There's no telling what other treasures can be found there for the taking.

Don, you are one of the super sleuths for sure! I wish it was worth more money!!
It is a very cool artifact. It is always fun to go through the items in the attic. You never know what you will find.
Attics are fun but the weather has to be just right!
This post reminds me of the 1970s when I was heavy into purchasing Avon products from a neighbor.
Myrl, so many people must have been because the items have not become valuable like so many other old items have. Too many of them, perhaps?
