VINTAGE COLOR 1936 BARBERSHOP PRICE LIST WITH UNION LOGO
This color price list gives a great look back into the good old days of the historical barbershop. This was my dad's second price list in his shop in the 1930's. A Shave was $.30 and a Haircut $.45- $.60, Clay Pack $.35, Fitch Shampoo $.50 and Hair Tonics $.25!!! It measures 8 1/2" by 11" and lists this to be the right of The Journeymen's Barbers' Union to remove this card if in violation of hours or pricing. There are some price changes so maybe thats why this one was just found as it was hidden away as most of his customers were older and could not afford set pricing so he gave them a break!!
This is an authentic reproduction of the sign that was hanging over the back entrance door on a string with a pencil note on the back of the original "CLOSED". There were some cuts and creases on the price list but I have had so many requests for it from viewing it on the listing references that I took it to a printer to have these made.
My Dad’s Legacy
I have included photos to view of my father’s barbershop in Buffalo N.Y. where this was to be sold or used. My father always bought 3 of everything just in case- 1 used 2 stored away new- very lucky for me now. He was a barber for over 65 years in the same location so it’s nice to pass on his passion! The photos are a bit blurred as they were taken off a TV special on my dad. This is a rare find to most avid barber collectibles
