Avon

Avon Products, Inc., simply known as Avon and originally known as California Perfume Company, was an American-British multinational makeup supplier. During the mid and late 1980s, it had a licensing agreement with GoodTimes Home Video to co-distribute various releases on VHS, among them the 1985 ABC animated TV special, "The Velveteen Rabbit," direct-to-video Muppets programs, and miscellaneous Hanna-Barbera cartoons. In 1988, the company signed licensing agreements with various home video distributors and began a new duplication contract with Technicolor Videocassette, Inc. By then, the company was notorious for putting out generic typewriter-like labels on their releases. Some of their post-1988 video releases carry the original distributor logo, including a couple of Random House Home Video releases sold through the company, others do not. Many of the company's post-1988 video releases were duplicated in either LP or EP/SLP mode, though some are in SP mode, and lack previews. Avon exclusively used slipcovers and they never released movies rated any higher than PG-13.
