I keep seeing stuff pop up on here about guys wanting to have shaving related art for dens, so here's something a *little different* than the normal shave ads.
This comes from "Sweeney Todd the Demon Barber of Fleet Street" a 1936 black and white movie about a barber who kills people with either his straight razor or special barber chair and trapdoor. With the help of the bakery in the same building making the former clients into meat pies.

A gentleman walks into barber, there's some attempted upselling, then at 2:04 - 2:14 they show this drawing to help setup the story...
SWEENEY TODD about to give a GENERAL POLISH OFF
Good film, I recommend it if you can track down a copy. I got mine several years ago in a Double Feature dvd. It was made in china, cardboard box the size of DVD case, and was regular priced at couple boxes for a dollar from someplace like walmart with hundreds of other old movies that have been long forgotten. All those things add up to make me think there's not much chance anybody cares about copyright even if still current, if so I humbly apologize and ask that this thread be deleted.
