About the Item

Early 20th century barbers point of sale hair comb and brush We share what we love, and we love this rare example of an oversized point of sale barbers hair comb and brush. Dated from the early to mid-20th century, the comb is made from a hard plastic and stamped H Fishlove & Co Chicago USA. The wooden brush has metal bristle’s and is stamped Hygex made in England.
