    Default Vintage Barber Shop Photos

    Hello all! I'm wanting to decorate my man cave with some old, black and white, vintage barber shop photos. Does anyone on here know where I can purchase some quality prints of old barber shops?

    I apologize that I can't help with that, My only advice would be google... But, I can recommend something that might add a really nice feel to the Man Cave.

    If you can find an antique shoppe near you, You may be able to find an old-fashioned barber shoppe pole... The red and white spinning kind. There was one at an antique mall in Medina Ohio, that prompted this thought..

    Sorry I can't help more.

    Cheers,
    Jeremy

    Lumberjack,

    I am looking at getting one of these haging barber pole lights. A little pricy at $88.00, but with this hobby, what isn't?

    That first photo scared me Ookla! Although, the kid does have a pretty tight part in his head...

    That's exactly what I'm looking for Ookla. I've looked at the Shorpy site before. However, I'm looking for photos to buy. The problem with just downloading them and printing them (aside from copyright issues) is quality. I also like the idea of hanging up a barber pole, that will look sweet!
