Above: 1956 Charles of the Ritz powder bar in San Francisco. The blending expert on the left is checking a powder match. She is working in ideal conditions for this due to the ample sunlight streaming in from the window to her right. The other consultant is using a powder press, only partly visible, to make up a compact while giving instructions, answering questions or making further sales. At the back a woman is viewing the effect of her made-to-order powder in the mirror of her compact (LIFE).
A set of equipment associated with a Charles of the Ritz powder bar that came up for sale included two metal cylinders along with the usual jars, scales and press. It is possible that these were used for additional mixing of the powder before it was placed in the press as they seem to be about the same diameter as a compact; however, this is just speculation.
Above: Two images from set of Charles of the Ritz Powder Bar equipment. Left: The cylinders to the left and right of the press suggest that they have been used to further mix the powder or to settle it in the pan before it was compressed. Right: A close-up of the top of the press showing the pressure gauge and the open and close switch.
