Vintage 40s 50s Rendezvous Dial A Date Loose Powder Make-up Compact with Sifter

This rare and unique compact was known as a dial-a-date or rendezvous compact. The clock dial can be moved to set a time, and the indicator dial can be turned to point to the engagement…tennis, hairdresser, cocktail, lunch, cinema, dressmaker, milliner, bridge, dinner, and theatre, which pretty much covers a girl’s daily activities! All clasps and hinges are in perfect working order. Original sifter and puff included (and some of the original powder). Mirror is a bit cloudy, but gets clearer each time cleaned. Compact has some minor scuffs and a very small ding. Appears to be an unbranded Le Rage, made for a 3rd party store. A great piece, especially for the girl who has everything! O67
