Description
*** 2 TIME CONTEST WINNER ***
"Randsburg Barber Shop Interior" is a photograph of the barber shop in Randsburg, California, shot through the barber shop window. This image would look wonderful with my images, "The Barber's Shelf" and "Randsburg Barber Shop Exterior." Randsburg Barber Shop Interior was awarded First Place in FAA's NON-NATURE PHOTOS Contest and was tied for First Place in FAA's HAVE A LOOK Contest.
Gold was discovered at Rand Mine near the present town in 1895 and a mining camp quickly formed and was named Rand Camp. Both mine and camp were named after the gold mining region in South Africa. The first post office at Randsburg opened in 1896. Randsburg is now a living ghost town. The town has an influx of tourism throughout the year, mainly from fall through spring. Travelers stop in while driving Highway 395, or camping in the area and off roading. During Thanksgiving, as well as New Year's Day weekend, the town is flooded by tourists. Many come on motorcycles and other off-road vehicles that line the streets. The center for most tourists is the general store / ice cream parlor. Famous for their 1904 soda fountain and "Black Bart" banana split desert, the general store is still active and filled with great food, many other necessities of life, and antiques from the area. There are a number of antique stores, art galleries, gift shops, and a historic mining museum of the area.
Sold 6/4/2017 and 5/2/2018. Other prints are available.

Wonderful capture of this disappearing part of Americana! The toning and processing really bring out the look and feel of age of the place from the worn leather detail of the back of the barber chair to the aged patina on the cabinets. Love all the details seen here. Congrats on your 1st place win in the recent Nostalgic Job Profession Pieces contest!
