EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image from the Harrods Catalogue of 1929, showcasing a selection of top-quality shaving essentials. The central focus of the page is the Safety Razor, a revolutionary innovation in men's grooming at the time. With its sleek design and promise of a closer, more comfortable shave, it quickly became a must-have item for men. Surrounding the razor is an assortment of accessories that complete the shaving routine. The Razor Strop, with its plush leather surface, is essential for maintaining the razor's edge. The Stropping Machine, a compact and stylish addition to any bathroom, ensures a perfect stroke every time. And let's not forget the Assorted Scissors Set, a practical and versatile addition to any household. The page is adorned with the elegant typography and illustrations typical of the 1920s, adding to its vintage charm. The prices listed next to each item offer a glimpse into the economic climate of the time. The Safety Razor, priced at 12 shillings and 6 pence, was a significant investment for many men. But with its durability and superior performance, it was a worthwhile expense. This photograph is a testament to the enduring appeal of classic design and the importance of self-care rituals, making it a fascinating addition to any collection of vintage advertisements or men's grooming memorabilia.
