THE LATEST WORD......

How About a Close Shave?

Lyn Knight's E-Shop

Real photo postcard of Silver's Barber Shop in Austin, TX. This is the all-time best barbershop image we've seen. If you have a better one, let us know. Notice the leather strops hanging from each chair for sharpening the razors. The gas lights hanging in the shop are fantastic. Do you see the wall of tonic mugs? I am told that each regular customer would have their own mug and brush for hygienic reasons. The old cash register stands in the center with drawers for each barber to place their tools for safe keeping. Wow! I could keep talking about it. The photo has so much detail. Back is clean and unused.

Hello!
I am always looking for cards of my two favorite towns: Panama City, FL and St. Andrews, FL (a/k/a Saint Andrew, FL). I like all views and eras, but of course the older cards are most desirable! Also, a steamer ship called the Tarpon (which used to sail between Pensacola and Panama City) is another interest of mine. If you have any of these, please let me know and if you don't have any right now, I hope you'll keep me in mind in the future! Thanks so much!
