“Over 120 years old, Avon the company was founded in 1886 in New York City as the California Perfume Company. It didn't take long for "CPC" to reach 10,000 representatives in 1906. That same year, 1906, was when the first color brochure was distributed. In 1928 the company boasted 25,000 representatives and introduced the first products under the name of Avon. In 1937 the company's name officially changed to Avon Products, Inc. The first novelty containers were introduced in the 1960s and the first glass car decanter was sold in 1968. Avon jewelry was introduced in 1971.” On Avon Collectibles, About. com reports.
