    It was a few years ago, Dan,...

    But when Colony found out how hard it was to put out a consistent product, they let Tedd skarf up all the seconds and put them in their own packaging.

    What crossed my benches was every bit as much trouble to save as a veteran OEM.

        Only one of many, Dan!

        That's why they were production 'seconds' at best; Most would say 'scrapped', and that's why Colony wouldn't put their name behind them.

        But Tedd would.

        I must admit the pressed metal tin box was pretty impressive lipstick.
