Just A Trim

Reminisce: Pics of the Past/pic from Bertha Jacobson

Three-year-old Joyce Bjerk towers high above the ground below in her father Oscar’s barber shop in Karlstad, Minnesota. Pop’s sign above the swanky Maytag washing machine declares a haircut and a shave for a fair price of just two quarters. Joyce seems to be getting the standard kids’ cut of 1934. At least she knows it’s on the house.

  1. Haha, that takes me back, Kerbey. I remember asking the barber for a haircut like the Dave Clark Five and seeing my mom mouth, “short back and sides” through the mirror 😉
