Description
Full color 9 3/4″ x 13 3/4″ ad for the Remington Rollelectric Electric Shaver. This ad shows a picture of a plane’s officer standing in front of a group of hard-working men and, the ad’s headline claims, that “He shaved his hidden beard in the U.S.A. early this morning”. The text tells us that “Longer-lasting shaves are yours with the amazing Remington Rollelectric. Here’s the first really new shaving development since electric shaving began. The Rollelectric shaves the Hidden Beard other shavers miss. (See below how the Rollelectric does a shaving job that’s never been done before.) The Rollelectric’s exclusive Roller Comb action also protects tender facial skin…gives a smooth, all comfort shave every time! Once you shave with a Rollelectric, you’ll agree that all other shaving methods are outmoded”. Pictured in this ad is a Before and After picture showing “Here’s your hidden beard” and “Here’s how Remington gets it”.
