Description

GUARANTEE SHEET FOR MARCEL HAIR WAVER, 1929. Color: Black, Red The broadside contains a guarantee of the waver properly functioning for up to one year. There is an explanation of the products durability by stating that the waver was "thoroughly tested and inspected before it leaves the factory." It also states that if needed repairs would be made free of charge within the first year and after the initial year of ownership the repairs would be priced reasonably. On the front side, along the right edge of the broadside is a product number 127657. The reverse side of the broadside has a cautionary note which states that the waver had been tempered with pure vaseline so initial use could cause the iron to smoke. The broadside has discoloration to the paper and stains but overall is in good condition.
