I wasn't sure where to put this: Shaving Help? Straights? but I decided that it's interesting enough to drop off here. Some of you will have seen this before, it's a free pdf download of a shaving manual published in 1905, and well worth 2.5Mb of disk space.

The style is pleasantly dated, and there's a few things in the text to surprise and confound. I particularly recommend the prophetic comments on the future of the safety razor, and I hope Sir Prize will be pleased to see pictures of a man suitably attired for shaving.
