OGALLALA
BAY RUM
The bold refreshing fragrance of Bay Rum was a staple in
Ogallala barber shops as the cowboys hit town after months on the trail.
In fact, it was popular throughout the country for decades.
From 1870-1885, Ogallala was the destination of
countless cowboys driving cattle north from Texas to the railhead.
It's a sure bet that the boys hit town, one of their first stops was a
barbershop for a bath, shave and a haircut. After being splashed
(quite generously) with the barber's own special mix of Bay Rum, he was
ready to hit the saloon and talk to the young ladies who were anxious to
sell him drinks....we'll leave it at that.
The decades have taken their toll on dance hall
girls and that great old fragrance - Bay Rum. While we can't do much
about the dance hall girls...nobody's wives will let them....we can bring
back that great old fashioned fragrance.
Now, this vintage after shave and skin toner, is back and
features an aroma that most versions somehow lost along the way.
Enjoy the great scent of Genuine Ogallala Bay Rum in an
antique looking apothecary bottle.
