Offered are four, EXTREMELY RARE, unopened, 8 ounce tins of Circa 1900, theatrical make up manufactured by The M. Stein Cosmetic Company of New York City-- the preeminent maker during this time period of theatrical face powder used by stage actors off and on Broadway! These tins display absolutely wonderfully as they feature a fabulously detailed ART NOUVEAU styled blue and cream colored lithograph on the cover! The side labels are quite interesting as well as they detail the 16 different face colors produced by M. Stein which include such unique color names as "Indian", "Moving Picture", Sallow Old Age", Chinese", and "Juvenile Flesh" to name a few! The tins are priced separately at $48.00 each. Please see photos which well represent condition. All of the tins have superficial scratches and rusting that is not inappropriate to such pieces as they are over 100 years old!! None of the rust permeates the tin, so integrity of structure remains. Please note that the tin that retains the brightest cover litho also has the greatest degree of rust to its base. Each tin measures 4.25 inches in diameter and is nearly 2 inches in height.

This authentic, 1930-40's, framed barber shop or beauty salon advertisement for "Slick Black Hair Color and Straightener" for African Americans was extremely difficult to photograph as it is framed under glass. Please note that actual poster color is deep, rich, and even throughout, and that any imperfections in the images as may appear in photos, are due strictly to lighting and glare difficulties.This colorful paper broadside measures approximately 10.5 inches wide x 15.25 inches, and framed, measures 17 inches wide x 22 inches long. The poster or broadside is in excellent condition with the exception of a small, 1.5 inch long crease line above the top of the gray side of the model under the word "hair'. Otherwise wonderful!! This piece has been matted and framed for some time and most recently hung on a wall in a Florida restaurant. To deter pilferage, the frame was actually screwed into the wall and as such, has evidence of minor puttying and repainting restoration where the two little screw holes were in the frame. The new owner may wish to continue restoration or simply leave the frame as is! This poster is rarely found in the antiques market today, and due to its striking imagery and coloring, is destined to become a most delightful and decorative room focal point!!
