Chain Prevents Dropping Shaver (Sep, 1948)

Chain Prevents Dropping Shaver
To prevent dropping and possible damaging of an electric shaver, a razor guard with chain attached is available. The guard is secured by removing one of the screws from the case and replacing it with a longer screw furnished with the guard. A loop on the end of the chain is worn over the thumb.

    Yeah, but I bet all the users ignored the chain and still ended up throwing their shaver through their television set.

    One of the dumbest things I have ever seen. It could still slip off your thumb and
    possibly put someone’s eye out.

    Wouldn’t it make more sense to hook the chain to the ring in your nose? That way it is never far from your face.
