Description

This captivating piece of original 1970s folk art is a hand-painted barber shop sign that perfectly captures a bygone era of grooming culture and individual style. Featuring a sequence of four male profiles, each sporting a distinctively retro hairstyle and facial hair—ranging from sharp geometric fades to a majestic handlebar mustache—this sign is as much a sociological record as it is a vibrant work of art. The saturated teal background is framed by a rhythmic, hand-painted border, while the figures are rendered in a charmingly flat, graphic style with intricate patterned shirts. It is signed by the artist, "Rasmane D," adding a layer of authenticity and collectible value to this expressive bit of street-art history. Ideally suited for an eclectic gallery wall, a high-end modern barber shop, or a contemporary loft, this horizontal wooden board serves as an immediate conversation piece. Measuring 28 inches wide by 10.25 inches tall, its slender profile allows it to fit perfectly over a doorway or as a storied anchor for a desktop vignette. The sign remains in great vintage condition, displaying age-appropriate edge wear, minor surface scuffs, and a warm, authentic patina that underscores its decades of use. Secure this rare and soulful example of commercial folk art today to bring a touch of curated character to your home or office collection.
