From 1849: Henry Smith - The Razor Strop Man

Here's another bit of literature that revolves around our appreciation of straight razor use. This one is entitled "Life and Adventures of Henry Smith, The Celebrate Razor Strop Man". This one is from 1849.

Around page 72 or so there are quite a few little ditties about various shaving and stropping related things. THe entire book is worth reading but the last part has some rhyming bits.

It's a Google Book which means that it's online, can be accessed via PFD or text format, and downloaded or read online. I'm not sure if you need to create a free Google account or not but it's pretty easy to access. Hope the link works. Enjoy.
