Gentlemen,
'Tis the season for articles on the world of straight razor shaving. I understand Playboy has published a piece in which our own SRP member Bluepriciple (Steve Dempster of the Invisible Edge) is quoted. I have not read the article yet, but I am sure it will be topnotch. Also, Steve is a fine gentleman and the man behind Thiers-Issard's Spartacus in England.
My own article on the world of straight razor shaving just came out in a Milwaukee-based alternative newspaper called Shepherd Express. The publication has national ties with other alternative newspapers; therefore, we might get some national play, too. Also, I managed to mention SRP.
The article, titled "Straight Razors: Bringing Joy to Shaving," is geared toward the general public. I had an 800-word (little over three typewritten pages) limit, and thanks to Lynn Abrams, I found myself with plenty of material. Read and enjoy.
I am hoping this link will work. Otherwise, I'll get in touch with the newspaper and see if they can provide the link.
Straight Razors: Bringing Joy to Shaving
Regards,
Obie
