Longtime Graettinger barber Martin Myhre retires after 60 years
The Esther ville Daily News photos Martin Myhre, Graettinger, who retires after more than six decades in barbering. He started Aug. 16, 1898, earned 35 cents a shave and 60 cents a haircut by the time he sold out, and kept a razor strap from 1912. He recalls singing and boxing in the shop, a smaller town scene with mud streets, kerosene lamps, and changing times. He has four children, with several grandchildren in the region.
