Hello everyone,

 

Has anyone come across a black and yellow barber’s
pole before?

I know of the red and white ones and know there are other
colours, but have no idea if different colours are supposed to represent other
things.

 

I don’t have a photograph of the pole in question
sorry – it is a potential donation that I wanted to get some background
information on first.

 

Any help appreciated.

 

Thanks

 

Arran
