EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a piece of history from 1929 - an advertisement for a range of hairbrushes in ivory and erinoid from Harrods toilet brush department. The advert showcases the luxurious accessories available at the iconic store, with a focus on high-quality grooming equipment for the discerning customer.
In the roaring twenties, personal grooming was taken very seriously, and having the right tools was essential. This advert highlights the importance of using premium hairbrushes made from materials like ivory and erinoid, which were considered top-of-the-line at the time.
The design of the advertisement is elegant and sophisticated, reflecting the style and glamour of that era. The use of hooks to display the brushes adds a touch of practicality to the overall aesthetic, showing how these items would have been showcased in-store.
Looking back at this piece of advertising history gives us a glimpse into how people shopped for beauty products nearly a century ago. It serves as a reminder that even everyday items like hairbrushes were once carefully crafted and marketed to appeal to consumers who valued both style and function.
Overall, this print is not just an advert for hairbrushes - it's a snapshot of life in 1920s London, where even something as simple as buying a brush could be an experience worth remembering.
