Close Shave at a 1950's Tennessee Barbershop
Pikeville, Tennessee Circa 1959. My sweetie's grandparents owned a side-by-side barbershop (his) and beauty salon (hers). The man in the hat on the right is my sweetie's grandfather, Charles Davis. He looked so dashing, even as he surveyed the scene of the wreckage after a car crashed into the side of their building. I find this photograph fascinating, particularly the displaced garbage can, which reads "Help Keep Your City Clean, City of Pikeville."
