Flat Top Haircuts

When I was growing up, flat tops were all the rage. My first coincided with our move to Britton, Okla.in 1944 or 45. It took a couple of years to perfect, but by 1947 it was nothing if not perfect. Part of every Saturday included a trip to Johnnie's barbershop (owned and operated by none other than Johnnie Sorrels).  Pride came in small doses then and my haircut was known as the best for miles around (well maybe it was just blocks).
