A challenge they are but you found a good one! Nicely exposed. The red, white and blue really catch the eye!

Boy those red, white and blue barber poles are just not something you see very much of today... great find and well suited to the theme of the week.

My barber shop still has one (revolving) out front! A perfect choice for the theme, Ron.

I haven't seen one for a while either. It is interesting that your American barber poles are red, white and blue when they were originally as ours are - red and white only. This stems from the time when barbers were also the people you turned to for surgical cutting perhaps because they had the sharp tools. Even today in London a most respected city livery company is that of the "Barber Surgeons". The red and white of the poles signifies blood and bandages.

I wonder how long they've been around. Venerable icon of the past and well portrayed here Ron.

Hello Ron.
Big Bravo, for showing there the "Dutch Flagg", with its Red White and Blue.!
The windings are afcourse dur to the wind, we usually have here in the lowlands, haha
But agree, a wvery well chosen and good looking picture of this Barber Icon.
We still have them here on the wall of some old Barber shops too.
Best regards from Jan

I don't think I have seen one of these for a while. You isolated it very well for this image.

Good find for the theme Ron, I have not seen one of these for many a long year. Good colour and well displayed against the dark tiles,
