The interior pole is constructed from printed paper with classic red, white, and blue striping and rotates smoothly when powered, recreating the familiar visual motion of a full-size barber pole in miniature form. The housing is finished in polished metal with a domed top and hanging ring, designed to suspend from the ceiling or display bracket. An integrated on\/off switch controls both illumination and rotation, allowing the piece to function as an animated point-of-sale or interior display rather than exterior signage. The overall design reflects mid-century barber supply merchandising, scaled for counters, mirrors, or interior shop use.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nDix Barber Supply was among the many regional and national suppliers that provided barber shops with equipment, furnishings, and branded display items during the mid-20th century. Miniature rotating poles like this were used to reinforce shop identity and draw attention without the space or installation requirements of a full exterior pole.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\nSpins and lights as intended.
