About the Figurine
• Subject: It depicts Persis Foster Eames Albee (the very first
"Avon Lady") dressed in an elegant Victorian-style light blue and white lace gown. She wears an ornate floral-trimmed hat and holds a handbag, standing next to a bird bath adorned with bluebirds and yellow tulips.
• Significance: These porcelain statues were not sold to the public. Instead, they were produced exclusively as an honorary award presented to top-selling Avon representatives who achieved entry into the prestigious President's Club.
The Avon President's Club Mrs.
Albee Award is a highly recognizable corporate
achievement award given to top-performing Avon sales representatives.
Mrs.
Albee famously traveled by horse and buggy to sell perfumes.
Crucially, she pioneered the company's direct-selling business model by recruiting and training an exclusive network of female representatives.
The Award & President's
Club
To incentivize its workforce, Avon established the President's Club to honor representatives who reached top-tier annual sales milestones. The crowning achievement of reaching this status was the annual presentation of the Mrs. Albee Award.
* Full-Size Figurines: The standard annual award, usually measuring between 9 to 10
inches tall.
