    Description

    Offered is a nail polish color chart from Revlon. 1945. This chart covers the red polishes or enamels as they were known. From Shy Red to Bronze. 21 different shades are shown. Starting in 1932, as a small nail polish business, Revlon would go on to become one of the largest cosmetics companies in the United States with a complete range of cosmetics. In 1930 or 1931, Charles Revson started selling nail polish for the Elka Company in Newark, New Jersey but, after working at Elka for a short time, resigned and established what would become Revlon in March, 1932, with his older brother, Joseph Revson, and a business acquaintance, Charles Lachman. The new company was going to be named Revlac – an amalgamation of Revson and Lachman – but it did not sound right (Tobias, 1976, p. 30) so an ‘L’ replaced the ‘S’ in Revson and Revlon started up at 38 West 21st Street, New York. Just under 3 ½” x 8 ½” and 4 pages. Tissue guard in the center to keep the samples apart. Very clean.
