All for Dad - Free Email Stationery Download and E-Card
"The process..., never a delightful one, is a very unpleasant and awkward piece of business when the floor... and he himself are all describing those complex curves which make cycles and epicycles seem like simplicity itself."
Oliver Wendell Holmes was on a ship to Europe, shaving. A little round tin box was, as good luck and a foresightful gift-giver would have it, with him. Inside the box was one of the brother Kampfe's patented Star safety razors.
Kampfe would later use O. W. Holmes Senior's endorsement in advertising for their razors, whose design was first patented on June 15, 1880 — 129 years ago today.
Razors, of course, and brushes, especially the classic ones, make fabulous gifts for the wanderlust-stricken dad, Father's Day or not. Everything for dad!
