In 1958, the City of Tumwater held The End of the Trail Day Celebration on Saturdays from May through July. Mayor George Jackson proclaimed that, “all males of shaving age refrain from shaving . . . [and] may wear a full beard, mutton chops, van dykes, side-burns, goatees, mustaches, or any hairsuit appendages they might desire. These worthy men shall be known as The Brothers of the Brush.” A group of Brothers displayed their whiskers here in front of the Olympia brewery.
