This antique photograph documents a Coty beauty counter in Selfridge's department store. I have added color to make it more interesting. We see two of the beauty advisors accompanied by a Coty representative wearing a very unusual, but appropriate dress: her skirt has circles which feature the powder puff design shown on the Air Spun powder boxes and the Coty name is written across her bust.
Inside the case and atop it are various perfumes, talcum powder bottles, powder boxes, and compacts.
This is a remarkable piece of history showing how the Coty products were displayed as well as the advertising signs which are framed with actual French flags.
