Let Me Put On My Face

Kohler Spruce Green has a clear, fresh beauty. Like all Kohler pastel shades it fits into varied decorative effects with individuality and charm. The smooth, lustrous Kohler enamel finish of the Cosmopolitan Bench Bath is glass-hard, easy-to-clean. The Gramercy vitreous china lavatory is typical of the beauty of Kohler design  . . .

It looks blue to us, but what do we know. The two bathing beauties in this illustration from 1950 seem to be sharing not just a bathroom but a face — one that looks about 10 years older than the bodies underneath. The one on the left is especially alarming/unconvincing.
