ORIGINAL Munsey's Magazine Print Ad ~ Oct.,1899

"TORREY STROPS ARE BEST"

J.R. Torrey & Co., Worcester, Mass.

LOL! I love this FABULOUSLY illustrated Victorian print ad that comes with a life's little learning lesson:

"It Does NOT PAY to experiment"...

 and a little limerick:

"Once a little shaver tried his father's razor on a block of wood. His father missed his razor, so he stropped the little shaver with a Torrey - and did it good."

in EXCELLENT condition for age!

half-page ad approx. 4 1/2" x 5 1/2"

from smoke-free home

ENJOY! & Thanks for stoppin' and shoppin'! - Kari :o)

SHIPPING NOTES: FAST shipping is always a TOP PRIORITY!  Upon receiving your cleared payment purchases are carefully packaged up and shipped out within 24-48 hours.  If for some reason there is a delay, I will email you.  Our PO is closed on the weekends, so items paid for on Friday afternoon, Saturday and Sunday are usually shipped out the following Monday (unless I happen to catch our mail lady beforehand). On MOST items I am also happy to combine shipping (also noted under the shipping&payments tab).
