Paint, Powder and Patches - A Handbook of Make-Up for Stage and Carnival

by H. Stanley Redgrove

This classic, historical book is a detailed and comprehensive look at cosmetics for drama which is perfect for anyone with a professional or amateur interest in theatrical make-up. In this original, unabridged form it contains much information that is useful and practical today. Extensively and beautifully illustrated this is a worthy addition to any book shelf. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
