## Caption

This day goes out to those who shave on a regular basis. October 18th is National No Beard Day!

For today, Howard letterpress printed a photo engraving from the Brett from Pennsylvania Collection, an assortment of 109 cuts that was donated to our museum a couple years ago. 

The print depicts a cartoon of a man shaving with a straight razor and holding his ear with the text stating, “CLOSE SHAVES often lead to a SERIOUS ACCIDENT!” This was printed with pink oil base ink using our Washington hand press, which was made in 1852.
