Burma Shave Part 4
We continue our series of Burma Shave rhymes from the signs by the side of the road. The dates are the dates of the Burma Shave signs. The pictures that I have added to accompany them are more recent.
From 1937:
My neck was sore
From 1937:
The cannibals
Took just one view
And said
He looks too nice
To stew
Burma-Shave
(Note: this photo was taken in Papua New Guinea in 1919 by J.P. de Vertinil for the Royal Geographic Society. It was labeled "Inland cannibals." I don't know whether they were really cannibals or not.)
From 1937:
It's in
The bag
Of every man
Who travels
Lightly as he can
Burma-Shave
From 1937:
Fire! Fire!
Keep cool
Be brave
Just grab
Your pants and
Burma-Shave
From 1938:
Ring out the old
Ring in the new
What good can
Shaving
Brushes do?
Burma-Shave
From 1939:
Mirror on
The bathroom wall
What's the
Smoothest shave
Of all?
Burma-Shave
Next time: more Burma-Shave rhymes.

Well, that must have been one very entertaining runway show.
Here is a link to the video of the runway show. Not the best quality, but it gives an idea of what happened.

Amusing Burma Shave slogans with spot on photos….:)
Photo 5 what a fun idea for New Years :) Apparently you have the choice of sipping the champagne with a straw, or pouring it down his ass and licking it off !
Thanks for the video, very hot, please post it here too
