Shave video from 1900
Description:
Like G.A. Smith's earlier Old Man Drinking a Glass of Beer (1898), A Quick Shave and Brush-Up is a vehicle for the Brighton comedian Tom Green, whose various grimaces when shaving and grooming himself constitute the entertainment. It's also a record of a time when cut-throat razors were a standard part of a gentleman's toiletry kit.

Speedy and he missed a few spots. Not sure what the real purpose of the flick was unless part of a bigger skit but it was kind of cool to watch.
Good judgment comes from experience, and experience....well that comes from poor judgment.

interesting video, but i have a feeling he was already cleaned shaved before he started the shave, like 10pups said looks like he missed a few spots.
A man should only look in the mirror when he shaves.

I don't think the razor was sharp. After shaving that fast and "wavy" I would have my lips and cheeks hanging in strips....

Sloppy shave, but fun to watch.
Wow, hadn't realized that You Tube was that old!
