just like romeo and juliet

This ad from the November 1969 issue of "Seventeen" gives me all kinds of pleasant memories. It depicts two things that were near and dear to my romantic adolescent heart at the time: my beloved Yardley cosmetics and Franco Zeffirelli's incredible 1968 film "Romeo and Juliet."

"Romeo and Juliet" remains one of my favorite films of all time and former Juliet Olivia Hussey is still gorgeous!

With the new Anne/Mary Boelyn movie coming out, I was watching old historial dramas, including my favorite movie of all time, Romeo and Juliet, the 1968 version. I remembered this exact ad for Yardley for some odd reason, and I wondered if I could find it online somewhere. Thank you!
