Signs of a bygone era - Burma Shave

I spend a lot of time online, and watching films, I love most things retro so i tend to take notice

 

Head Having huh? Would think that would increase the chances of gray hairs and baldness.

Yeah, some of us crazy Americans are already using our bodies as billboards (Not myself, of course)

 

these r simply unreal. thank u to all who shared. wow

 

Howdy! About what year did Burma Shave stop making their products, shaving cream, etc.? Thanks! Always, Gene

 

The signs were discontinued when the Odell family sold to Phillip Morris in 1963. ASR bought them in 1976-1979 in a series of brand name acquisitions.
Burma Shave products continued on until ASR began phasing out the creams first then the soaps in the late in the 2000 decade.
The brushes hung on until around 2010 but were being made in China until I had heard that they were recently discontinued.
