Description: Burma-Shave was introduced in 1925 by the Burma-Vita company in Minneapolis owned by Clinton Odell and the product subsequently was the Burma-Shave brand of brushless shaving cream and its supporting advertising program. Sales increased; at its peak, Burma-Shave was the second-highest-selling brushless shaving cream in the US. Sales declined in the 1950s, and in 1963 the company was sold to Philip Morris. Its well-known advertising signs were removed at that time. COMBINED SHIPPING: Will weigh multiple books and deduct accordingly based on weight and zip code.
