History- (from Wikipedia) Coty is a multinational beauty company founded by François Coty in Paris in 1904. The company began its global expansion in the early 1910s, first in London and then New York. The company's products gained more attention in the United States as World War I soldiers started returning from France with gifts for loved ones. With its subsidiaries, it now develops, manufactures, markets, and distributes fragrances, cosmetics, skin care, nail care, and both professional and retail hair care products. As of 2018 Coty owned around 77 brands.
Condition- This ad is in excellent condition and measures 10 x 14 inches.
You can pick this up in Porters Lake. I do go into northend Halifax once a week during the lunch hour and could meet you there if that is easier.
