Very Sharp

Another CTA card from the 1754.  It's really too bad this one is in such bad shape.  And I didn't know Burma Shave made blades, so you learn something new every day.

    At least it's still around. If flattened out and scanned, with a little digital-elbow-grease a nice looking reproduction can at least be fabricated.

    How did something that edgy get past Standards in those days?

    It's like an Axe ad.

    True story: Burma Shave is still made today, however under its new name, Myanmar Shave.

    In the distance I can hear the rim shot after David's last post.
