EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back in time to the year 1906, when this iconic American newspaper advertisement for the Gillette Safety Razor was published. The image showcases a piece of history that revolutionized men's grooming routines forever. The ad features the recognizable logo of Gillette, with its sleek design and globe symbolizing their global reach even at that early stage. Positioned prominently on the page, it grabs attention immediately. The slogan "The Best a Man Can Get" is displayed proudly beneath the razor, emphasizing its superior quality and performance. In an era where shaving was often seen as a tedious task, this advertisement aimed to change perceptions by highlighting the convenience and safety provided by Gillette razors. Men across America were enticed by this innovative product that promised a smooth shave without any nicks or cuts. As we gaze upon this vintage print, we are transported to a time when advertising relied heavily on visual impact rather than commercial jargon. It serves as a reminder of how far we have come in terms of marketing techniques while also appreciating the timeless appeal of classic advertisements like these. Preserved meticulously by The Granger Collection in New York, this photograph captures not only an important moment in advertising history but also reflects societal changes surrounding personal grooming habits during that period.
