Rolls Razor at the Wenatchee Valley Museum

Curiosities from the Museum: Razors – 07/18/2024

Over the years at the Wenatchee Valley Museum, some odd and strange things have been donated to the collection. While there is currently a screening process and procedures for donating items but, this wasn’t always the case. We occasionally find oddities in the archives from years gone by with little or no explanations.

It is now the time of year that we like to call NO SHAVE NOVEMBER, so what better chance to showcase some of the shaving razors we have in our collections. Where did they come from? Why did we keep them? And what lucky faces did they have the honor of gracing? We will never know.

Please note: This story was originally published in the Comet Magazine in November of 2023. Check out more stories like these in the Comet Magazine.
