EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print titled "Shave with a Green Lizard and smile" takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century, showcasing an intriguing illustration for a trade card. The artwork, created by the American School, is part of a private collection and offers a glimpse into historical advertising practices. In this whimsical scene set in a bathroom, we see a man engaged in his morning grooming routine. With foam covering his face and razor in hand, he gazes into the mirror with anticipation. What makes this image truly unique is the presence of a vibrant green lizard perched on the edge of the mirror. Its mischievous grin suggests that shaving can be an enjoyable experience if approached with lightheartedness. The artist skillfully captures not only the act of shaving but also highlights elements related to skincare and hygiene during that era. The cutthroat razor, soap bar, and sharpening tools scattered around add authenticity to this historical depiction. While it remains unclear which company utilized this advertisement illustration, its charm lies in its ability to transport viewers back in time. This piece serves as both an artistic representation and an insight into past marketing strategies employed by advertisers. With its rich colors and attention to detail, "Shave with a Green Lizard and smile" invites us to appreciate how advertisements have evolved over time while reminding us that even mundane tasks like shaving can be transformed into moments of joy when approached with enthusiasm.
