Rare original 1944 Avon “Heavenly Light” face powder representative sample display board.
These sample palettes were used by Avon sales representatives during the company’s early door-to-door sales era to demonstrate available powder shades to customers in their homes.
Features original illustrated backing with multiple sample powder tins and period shade names including:
• coral rose
• peach
• rachel
• natural
• rose acier
• nut brown
• rio rose
• dusk rose
• sun gold
A wonderful piece of early Avon history and an increasingly difficult-to-find example of vintage direct-sales beauty advertising memorabilia.
Beautiful pastel artwork and authentic mid-1940s presentation make this an outstanding display piece for collectors of:
• vintage Avon
• advertising memorabilia
• vanity decor
• mid-century cosmetics
• door-to-door Americana
Please note: due to the age of this item, it is likely beyond its original recommended use period, although cosmetic products from this era often did not include printed expiration dates. This compact is being sold primarily as a vintage collectible, nostalgic vanity piece, or decor/display item rather than for modern cosmetic use. Buyer assumes responsibility for any personal use of vintage cosmetics.
