A brylcreem recipe

(1/1)

Vintage_BE:
I pictured this in the municipal museum of Avignon, France. The museum  has collected (oral and written) stories of local people about life in their childhood - some of these stories go back to the 1920/1930s. The picture is of a recipe for hair styling gel (in European English often called “brylcreem”) which through the 1950s was a must have for any gentleman. I am impressed by the quality of the penmanship. The style reminds me of the handwriting of my grandmother (who was born in 1896).

Love it! Thank you for sharing!
