1920's Broadway Theater Program Advertising for Women

Another cool listia auction I received. Check out the ads in this 1926 Broadway theater program.  It's what you expect: cosmetics, shoes, clothes and restaurants.  I love the Egyptian influences, art-deco, geometric shapes and the fixation of all things Parisian that canvassed the roaring 20's.  Stay tuned for a men's version to be posted.
