In the National Geographic special "Closer Shave", that you can find here,
they talk about a famous barber textbook from 1920: "Barbers Manual" from A.B. Moler.

I've discovered that is avaible now on ebay here in really good condition, and here, with a nice Fridour razor and strop.
It seems they don't send overseas, so I cannot buy it.

It would be nice if someone could buy this book, do a scan of the interesting chapter, and put the file in the help area in Straight Razor Place...
Any volunteer?
