“A Personal Valet at Public Service"
Interior View of Herndon’s New, Sanitary, Crystal Palace Barber Shop.
A TLANTA, the thirty-second city in size, supports the finest, most sanitary and most
completely equipped barber shop and bath rooms in the world.
A. F. Herndon, 66 Peachtree Street, has just completed a barber shop which is pa
latial in its decoration. White marble and crystal are used almost exclusively for both
artistic effect and sanitary results. The white marble floors are spotlessly immaculate,
the glass panels in the walls are glisteningly brilliant and the gorgeous crystal drops,
which hide the electric bulbs, are radiant.
The sanitary equipment is incomparable. Every modem device and method is used
to insure absolute antiseptic conditions. The white chairs, upholstered in green leath
er; the marble lavatories, the glass antiseptic cabinets with sterilized instruments and
accessories, combined with constant vigilance make this shop unparalleled. No amount
of money has been spared to make it the most modern in equipment and convenient to
the last degree.
The bath rooms, in white marble, afford every comfort. The very best, most compe
tent assistants are employed and convenience and efficient sendee are the first consider
ations. Hot, cold and shower baths may be secured at any time. ^
The Herndon prices have not been changed.
This crystal tonsorial palace will be thrown open Monday, May 26, for your inspec
tion from 3 p. m. until 10 p. m., during which time no business will be transacted. At
this opening music will be furnished by an orchestra. Ladies will be presented with
flowers while the men will receive attractive souvenirs.
Before starting work on this palace, the proprietor traveled extensively over this
country and abroad seeking the best and most modern equipment money could purchase.
He consulted recognized authorities on sanitation and antisepsis and gave orders
that only the best and most artistic should be employed in the construction of his place.
The chairs installed in the shop were selected after careful investigation and the
contract was awarded to the E. Buminghaus Company, of Cincinnati, one of the largest
barber supply houses in the country.
The building of the Herndon palace was under the personal supervision of L. P.
McGee, architect.
