An example of the Marjon School of Cosmetology student application despite it being rather wrinkled from being folded up in a suitcase for 47 years. It will flatten out more now that it is properly sleeved. Tuition for the 11 month course was $300. Which, I believe, included the kit I purchased at the estate sale. Though, obviously, some of the original parts are probably long gone.

Sylvia Steele paid her dues at the Marjon School of Cosmetology. It wasn't cheap. Note the alternate address on the front of the receipt book. The Marjon School of Cosmetology had at least two addresses in Wayne. The main one was 35611 Michigan Avenue though the Student Receipt Book pictured above from 1971 shows an address of 33556 Michigan Ave. as well, which may have been the offices for the school. Romulus Roman , December 13, 1972 The only advertisements that I could locate were from the 1970s and the business persisted until the late '70s when the Wayne Karate Studio occupied the building. The advert above mentions the second anniversary of the Marjon School. Romulus Roman , November 28, 1979 In the early 1990s Motor City Collectibles was operating from that address.
