Theme justification: Scapiccio is a bay rum plus figs and olives, and the dude is a captain. B Cubed is a bay rum as well, and Boat Drinks are on a boat.

The razor is a perfect fit for today’s theme, but it is a bit of a mystery, too. To the best of my abilities, I can date it to pre 1930 (because it doesn’t have the “Made in Germany” stamp that would have been mandatory starting then) and it can’t predate the S.S Paris’ win in 1889 because, well, why would they have made the razor (A bit more background for those interested). So I feel pretty safe claiming the $MACHINEAGE tag.

I almost forgot about the Osma challenge, so I reshot the SOTD pic (previous pic). I used it ✅
