EDITORS COMMENTS
A Shaving Essential for the Brave and Active: Introducing the Star Safety Razor of 1915 Amidst the chaos and uncertainties of the First World War, the simple act of shaving took on a new significance. Men in active service sought comfort and familiarity in their daily routines, and a well-prepared shave was a small yet essential part of that. Enter the Star Safety Razor of 1915, an advertisement for which graced the pages of the Illustrated London News in that year. The Star Safety Razor promised its users the finest shaving experience with its hollow-ground blade, crafted from the best Sheffield steel. The blade, the advertisement boasted, would last a lifetime. This was no idle claim, for Sheffield steel was renowned for its exceptional quality and durability. The Star Safety Razor was more than just a shaving tool; it was a chum, a companion to the active man. The advertisement depicted a soldier, his uniform adorned with campaign medals, in the act of shaving, a reminder that even in the midst of war, men found solace in the simple pleasures of life. The Star Safety Razor was a testament to the ingenuity and craftsmanship of the era. Its sleek design and innovative safety features made it a popular choice among men, both in the military and at home. The advertisement, with its bold typography and evocative imagery, effectively conveyed the message that the Star Safety Razor was a worthy investment, a small luxury that every man deserved. As we look at this advertisement from over a century ago, we are transported back in time, to an era of courage, resilience, and the enduring power of everyday objects to bring comfort and joy. The Star Safety Razor of 1915 may have been just a shaving tool, but to the men who used it, it was so much more.
