THIRD FLOOR NORTHWEST ROOM
| The "Barber Shop",
as it is referred to, exhibits items from an early Laramie barber shop,
as well as dental and medicinal items. This barber shop chair is one of
the heaviest items in the collection! Note the booster seat resting on
the chair’s arms. This was used for children so the barber could
easily reach them. It even has a make-shift seatbelt to keep the child
in his seat!
The heavily ornamented cash register also came from the barber shop. Detail and decoration were very important features on old cash registers, and they were always very heavy so no one would steal them! Also in this room is a razor collection. The numbered razors were used by specific men in Laramie, who kept their individual razors at the barber shop. |
