Eatonville Barber
Eatonville Barber

Eatonville was home to an upscale barber shop around 1915. (Randy Stewart believes the barber’s name was Hendricksen.)

The local barber not only had all the latest equipment, tonics and comfortable chairs, there are also fans, floral decor . . . and taxidermy. In the corner is seat to have your shoes shined, including a spittoon.

Pat Van Eaton says, “The barber shop was located between Ingersol Hardware and the New Mashell Restaurant where the Sears store is now. It burned down in 1915 fire.”

We do know but looking at the walls he ran a union shop and accepted “positively no credit”.
