    Very interesting products. Beauty has always been important to women of all races and ethnicities. I really found the wigs interesting. They were really ahead of their time. They remind me of the silk and lace front wigs women are wearing today. I've seen some of these hairstyles in old family pictures. Thank again Shelley!

    18th century? I could be wrong, but I think this page indicates the catalogue to be from 1920... (See the Morgan Drug Co. advertisement.)
