三色柱(Barber's pole)






The illustrations of Ellison Hoover from my 1925 edition of "Barber Shop Ballads: A book of Close Harmony", by Sigmund Speath (Simon & Schuster).
To the nichey world of barbershop quartet singers, this book and these adorable illustrations are somewhat iconic.
The book's inner lining page depicts all the songs discussed in this little, informal "how-to" handbook (which included two records); and each picture is incorporated into each chapter on each song covered in the book.
Hoover was essentially a cartoonist. He was born in Cleveland and studied at the Cleveland School of Art and the Art Students League. He was a syndicated cartoonist for the New York Herald Tribune in the 1930s and also worked for the Evening World and Newark Evening News.
However he did artistic lithographs- a sample will be in the comments below.

三色柱(Barber's pole)是理髮店的標誌。三色柱起源於中世紀歐洲。中世紀歐洲的理髮店同時經營拔牙術和其他外科手術。中世紀時期,人們認為一些疾病可以通過放血進行治療,一種水蛭被用來治療疾病。因此出現了一種柱子,上面有裝水蛭的容器,下面有裝血的容器。此後,帶有紅色和白色條紋的柱子成為理髮店的標誌。後來又加入了藍色,其中紅色代表動脈血,而藍色代表靜脈血。

サインポールは、理容店を示す細長い円柱形の看板の三色の縞模様(レジメンタル・ストライプ)がクルクルと回転する。
「サインポール」は和製英語で、英語では barber's pole または barber pole と呼ばれる[1]

barber's pole is a type of sign used by barbers to signify the place or shop where they perform their craft. The trade sign is, by a tradition dating back to the Middle Ages, a staff or pole with a helix of colored stripes (often red and white in many countries, but usually red, white and blue in the United States). The pole may be stationary or may revolve, often with the aid of an electric motor.[1][2]
A "barber's pole" with a helical stripe is a familiar sight, and is used as a secondary metaphor to describe objects in many other contexts. For example, if the shaft or tower of a lighthouse has been painted with a helical stripe as a daymark, the lighthouse could be described as having been painted in "barber's pole" colors. Likewise, borders may be marked and warnings highlighted.
