Barbering in Mayberry

Something I always wondered about concerning Floyd's barbering techniques. I notice that every single time I have seen Floyd cut hair he uses only a comb and scissors. When I got my hair cut all the time I was growing up in the late 50's and through the 60's and maybe even beyond that time,

re: Real Voice or Lip Synching?

I don't understand. Does that mean Elinor Donahue lip-synched her own singing when the scene was filmed? HistoryBuff - Original Message - I'm not sure about Joanna Moore's singing (sounds like her though)but Elinor Donahue has told the story about her singing experience on the show.

When I was a boy in the mid 1960s, I spent a lot of time on the Desilu studio ets, because Frances Bavier was my grandmother. Gosh, Paul - since I only have girls at home that means you must be my nephew? Haven't you ever wondered in the one episode why Aunt Bee's cousin was named

Re: aunt bee

I was interested in the comment of Paul's about Aunt Bee being his grandmother. I never knew Frances Bavier was married let alone had children. In fact, there is very little I know about Miss Bavier. I always thought the character was a lot like my own grandmother. Getting to play on the sets

Re: barbershop

When I was a little girl, Daddy told Mama he was going to get his hair cut and would get my bangs cut. Mama was speechless. Take her child into a barbershop! Well, I wanted to see Floyd and because I was Daddy's girl I went. I loved it. They had magazines, which I was too little to read.

You beat everything

As Spock would say, Fascinating. As Gomer would say, Shazam! Paul thanks for sharing this memories with us. Have you ever thought about writing a book? I imagine your memories coupled with your steel- trap like mind for TAGS facts would make it a great read. --Jason in Brooklyn, NY On

Electric clippers

I think the electric clippers would have been too noisy...Of course, Floyd could have just pretended to be actually cutting the hair with them, same as he did with the scissors. But might have been more noticeable that he was just pretending. Ellen

Cutting With Scissors

//But I do think that because of hair styles back in the days of Mayberry electric clippers was the norm for cutting most hair.// Ken, on the wall in the barber shop there is a sign listing the price of a flattop. We know you can't do a flattop with just scissors - you need clippers. So I
