Favorite Vintage Shaving commercials (with video)

I was wistfully reminiscing about all those wonderful commercials
featuring shaving products from the 50's, 60's and 70's (well,
maybe more nostalgic than wistful). There have been previous
threads dedicated to this topic but they are about ten years old
but not many have video links. So, how about uploading
links to our favorites from yesteryear courtesy of YouTube...

Though my memories are from American television, feel free to
post commercials from other countries...they might be even more
fun to watch!

My exploding razor knows secrets
In the 1990s Shick commercials broadcast in Taiwan, the last line "shave yourself before you shave others" has even become a common proverb, reminding us that we must examine ourselves before criticizing others.

The commercial also helped Shick successfully market into the surviceman market and gain a sales niche in Taiwan.

It's an honor to bring a little exotic to the B&B.
And there are only men in this commercial, instead of using women to highlight the masculinity of men, it was quite special in the past.

when I was still a youngling, I remember a commercial where cabinet maker couldn't get a piece of wood to slide into it's place, until he rubbed it against his 5-oclock shadow beard. Then, like magic, it fit right in.

"Old Spice means quality,"
Said the Captain to the Bosun.
Ask for the package with
The ship that sails the ocean.

Brushless or lather boys,
Whichever you've a notion
Fifty cents for the shaving cream,
A dollar for the lotion.
