As I've been working through the last dozen or so
character pages yet to be completed, I was intrigued by the fact that Mister Rogers kept the same barber in the Neighborhood for multiple decades. I guess this should come as no surprise considering the longevity of most of the Neighborhood's regular characters, but still, take a look at
Nick Failla giving a haircut to Mister Rogers in 1973 (
Episode 1262) and then again almost twenty years later in 1991 (
Episode 1634).
Always on the lookout for interesting background details in the Neighborhood, it was fun to discover the display in the back corner of Mr. Failla's 1973 barbershop -- a display for Ajax Unbreakable Pocket Combs.
But these aren't just combs. They're supercombs.
