Description
Black and white 5″ x 13″ ad for the Remington Rand Electric Close-Shaver. Just above a picture of this item, where it gives a price of $15.75, it has the headline saying that it “Shaves Close!”. The text claims that “When the world’s largest manufacturer of precision appliances puts its name on an electric shaver, you can bet your last whisker that it will really shave! Close! Clean! Fast! Without injury to the skin! Without weeks of ‘learning how’! The Remington Rand Close-Shaver is the only shaver that has all these advantages: Shaves Close from almost any angle. Doesn’t have to be held ‘just so’. Greater Cutting Surface for faster, closer shaves. Combing Bar to lift the hairs and guide them into the cutters. High-Speed Motor that runs on A.C. or D.C.. Light, Compact Design to fit your hand and prevent slipping. If you’re dealer can’t supply you with a Remington Rand Close Shaver, send a check or money order (but be sure to mention your dealer’s name so we can credit him with the sale) to General Shaver Corporation, Bridgeport, Conn – a division of Remington Rand Inc.”.
