Synopsis
An illustrated romp through one of the oddest and most fiercely competitive global competitions: the World Beard and Moustache Championships., An illustrated romp through one of the oddest and most fiercely competitive global competitions: the World Beard and Moustache Championships. Since its humble beginnings in Germany in 1990, the World Beard and Moustache Championships has blossomed into an international event that has since been staged in Norway, Sweden, and, in 2003, the United States. The competition awards prizes in seventeen categories, such as Dali Moustache, Freestyle Goatee, Garibaldi, and German Imperial, and some of the best and most notable contestants from the last ten years are featured here. You will encounter Ted Sedman, president of London's Handlebar Club, who was in the Guinness Book of World Records for having Britain's longest moustache; Paul Miller and his impressive Fu Manchu; Gary Johnson and his award-winning Musketeer; and Bruce Roe and his manly Wild West-all brave, bold, and creative men united by a single goal: the pursuit of true individuality. It's impossible not to be won over by this dedicated group of facial hair fantasists. Chock-full of photos that will tickle and fascinate, The World Beard and Moustache Championships is an irresistible tribute to these stylish and passionate creations.

    As the title mentions awesomebooksusa, most books have been rarely awesome but the book prices have been almost generous, granted. Unbelievable services : 3 day international shipping, prompt dispatch, newly book condition, provided tracking, secure package, exactly received book, and safe deliveries. My gratitude to the seller’s thoughts of the needy buyers sending the wanted books to the new residence. Many thanks! Arabella

  • Seeing the Crazy World of Beards for the 1st Time

    There is a crazy, fun-loving bunch of guys (and their girls) who simply love to grow facial hair and come together every now and then to be judged and enjoy each others company. My wife and I had the wonderful opportunity to bump into a lot of them on a cruise ship heading for Alaska, where the World Beard and Moustache Championship of 2009 was held in Anchorage. These are great people from all over the globe. Some speak english, and others just grin ear to ear. No matter what comunication skills they may or may not have, fun is had by all. This book is a great source to discover the many different catagories that are judged in the championship. The reader can get a sense of this experience. No world problems will be solved, but each person contributes to the joy of the others. There are ...
