Richard Hudnut the cosmetic king of Deco


I have recently been collecting Richard Hudnut "Marvelous" Brand Cosmetics.
I found my first Piece of "Marvelous" at a Antique store for a Whopping $1.00, it was on sale :). the Addiction didn't stop there, over the last couple of months I have found a Compact, Powder Box and Rouge.
I think the reason why I am obsessed with this label is because of the crazy Deco Design.

Los Angeles Art Deco Society merges with Travel town at Griffith park


Robert and I were contacted by the Art Deco Society to Volunteer at Travel Town next weekend for an event called "Depot Days".
The coordinator had suggested that some of the volunteers have a theme.Rob and I rubbed our heads together and Figured out that he will be Walter Burns and I will Be Hildy Johnson! if you folks don't know who those Two were, they were characters in a movie Called " His Girl Friday" from 1940 Starring Rosalind Russell, and Cary Grant.
Doing our Reenactment we are going to sit in a Pullman Car, I'll be typing away on our 1923 Underwood Typewriter. I have this Perfect Dress for the occasion, a Dark Blue pin striped dress, with a Blue and Gray ladies Fedora thats from Columbia Pictures.... yes the Studio where old movies where made :)
pictures to follow.
