Are there dentist chairs mixed in there? The old scale at the back is neat. All the stuff left here is amazing.

I think they are dental chairs....why would they need that many barber chairs....and the sea-foam green on the chair matches the podium of the thing in the foreground...but I could be wrong, it's been known to happen.. ;-)

That is what made me think dental chairs Katy. The thing in the front.

They probably are dentist chairs, not sure why hair cutting came first to my mind...

Because most of us would rather get a haircut than go to the dentist.

Those are the old style dentist chairs. Good sturdy head clamps on them so the victims could not get away.

Decent old barber chairs are hard to find now a days. Someone could fix these up and convert them for use, and receive a nice profit on them. My barber complains every time I visit how hard it is to find a decent chair.

It always amazes me that these places have so much equipment left behind - what a terrible waste! Mind you, we wouldn't get so many beautiful shots otherwise >.<
