Burma-ShaveFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaJump to navigationJump to searchThis article is about the brand of shaving cream. For the song by Tom Waits, see Foreign Affairs (Tom Waits album).1940s Burma-Shave tube and boxBurma-Shave was an American brand of brushless shaving cream, famous for its advertising gimmick of posting humorous rhyming poems on small sequential highway roadside signs.Cultural impact[edit]A number of films and television shows set between the 1920s and 1950s have used the Burma-Shave roadside billboards to help set the scene. Examples include Bonnie and Clyde, A River Runs Through It, The World's Fastest Indian, Stand By Me, Tom and Jerry, M*A*S*H and the pilot episode ("Genesis") of Quantum Leap. The long-running series Hee Haw borrowed the style for program bumpers, transitioning from one show segment to the next or to commercials.The final episode of the popular television series M*A*S*H featured a series of road signs in Korea "Hawk was gone, now he's here. Dance til dawn, give a cheer. Burma-Shave".Roger Miller's song "Burma Shave" (the B-side to his 1961 single "Fair Swiss Maiden") has the singer musing that he's "seen a million rows of them little red poetic signs up and down the line", while reciting rhymes in the manner of the ads. Tom Waits' song "Burma-Shave" (from his 1977 album Foreign Affairs) uses the signs as an allegory for an unknown destination. ("I guess I'm headed that-a-way, Just as long as it's paved, I guess you'd say I'm on my way to Burma-Shave") Chuck Suchy's song "Burma Shave Boogie" (from his 2008 album Unraveling Heart) incorporates several of the Burma Shave rhymes into its lyrics.The pedestrian passageway between the Times Square–42nd Street/Port Authority Bus Terminal stations in the New York City Subway system contains a piece of public art inspired by the Burma-Shave ads; Norman B. Colp's The Commuter's Lament, or A Close Shave consists of a series of signs attached to the roof of the passageway, displaying the following text:[9]Overslept, / So tired. / If late, / Get fired. / Why bother? / Why the pain? / Just go home / Do it again.Several highway departments in the United States use signs in the same style to dispense travel safety advice to motorists.Several writers of doggerel and humorously bad poetry (such as David Burge) often use "Burma Shave" as the last line of their poems to indicate their non-serious nature.An example of political "burmashaving" signs at Confusion Corner, Winnipeg.The word "burmashaving" is used in Canada to describe politicians holding signs and waving to traffic by the side of the road, a common sight during election campaigns.[10][11] One of the first to use the phrase was Nova Scotia Progressive Conservative premier John Buchanan, who would stand at the end of a long line of party signs and wave to morning traffic.[citation needed] The Kids Are AlrightDirected byJeff SteinProduced byTony Klinger Bill CurbishleyStarringRoger Daltrey John Entwistle Keith Moon Pete TownshendMusic byThe WhoCinematographyAnthony B.
