Comb - Kushu Utamaro (1785)
Stole many a “these things” from my sister. lol
You’re not alone.
I remember a time in school when no one dared take a headband off and set it down for a minute, because it would immediately be over someone else’s eyes.
(On the playground)
Guys, we can’t all be Geordi.
(30 seconds later)
Ok, I guess we can all be Geordi.
Geordi party Starter Pack:
Teacher: Did you bring enough for the whole class?
Yes, yes you did.
Same here. The Yellow/Black ones were the prized ones
I had long hair during the TNG days, and somewhere in my childhood home, there’s a bathroom drawer or cabinet full of the same kind they used for Geordi’s visor, and similarly painful plastic headbands. I know there’s also a Polaroid or two somewhere of me and a cousin holding them up to our faces, running around saving the Enterprise that was the basement. If I’d only known to bring them around me throughout life, for that nostalgia hit…
I found this video with one of the actual props. Potato quality, but it looks like the MOFO was 5mm thick cast aluminum, with polished brass rods for the comb teeth.
Nice find. I like the consideration of the nose bridge.
I made this for a reply to another comment, but wow does it fit.
