4.5" tall A wonderful vintage advertising bottle for "Special Oil for Charles of the Ritz Pressed Powder Machine," presented in a charming green glass bottle with its original paper label and black ribbed cap. The bottle comes with its original cream-colored box, featuring the elegant embossed Charles of the Ritz crest logo in gold. This piece captures a fascinating slice of mid-century beauty industry history, tied to the once-famous Charles of the Ritz cosmetics brand and its in-store pressed powder dispensing machines. A great find for collectors of vintage cosmetics ephemera, beauty industry advertising, perfume/vanity bottle collectibles, or mid-century pharmacy and department store history. Condition: Overall good vintage condition. Box shows notable wear with staining, edge softening, and fraying typical of age, shown in photos.
