    Looks Great Tom!

    After you get some reading materials for Tim, you could start looking for some vintage displays of things like---

    Very cool Tom.

    A flat screen TV, a small fridge and mini bar, and WiFi would make it a place I'd never want to leave!!

    Imagine how sore your neck will get seriously studying each one of those massive wall-mounted razor displays. Be sure to bring your favorite OTC pain killer, Shaun!

    Some reading that should hold your interest, Tim!

    Not what it's about, Pete. Only a repop Crosley from the 90's and some good tunes. Bar is in the kitchen and the pisser is on the way!

    A 'Little Dab'l Do Ya'!



    The barbershop that I frequented as a young boy had displays of the Butch wax, combs, all kind of hair tonics that you didn't see in regular stores.

    30 years ago when my dad's oldest sister passed away and we were cleaning out her apartment, I found a brand new tube of Brylcreem still in the box. Had it for years but the now ex tossed it during the divorce. Damn I wish I still had it as I'd mail it to you for your 'Barbershop'.

    WOW! That represents an acquisition disorder of an entirely different order.

    I can only imagine the hundreds of hours and the skill required to put that glimpse of history together.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Well, a place like that is about different things to different people.

    For me it would be the ultimate man cave.
    A place to go for watching sports, alone or with friends...
    Or when wifey says "are you going to watch another game??"
    A place to sit and unwind with a drink.
    A place to sit and listen to Oldies Rock softly while working on the tablet online.

    The bottom line is your place is "over the top" cool...
    and..."You did it your way."

    to you my friend!

    Thanks, Pete! I do have a larger adjoining room set-up for that. More razors, memorabilia, gun safe, TV.
    My wife has no hobbies, really. I just took the 2 rooms over and did what I wanted as I pay for it all anyway!

    How much would you require for rent so I can live in your shave den?
