004987Paris: Agence Générale de Publicité et de PropagandePrinter: E. Desfosses. Wraps. Brochure. Near Fine. N.d. circa 1930. 8vo. 24.5 by 18.5 cm. Unpaginated 31 leaves all of a weighty card stock or over 60 pages about half with color plates we count 31 but one can quibble about whether one or two of them so qualify. Eleven of these are non-product illustrations -- attempts to capture concepts or abstractions -- the balance being exquisite depictions of the company's fine perfume bottles. The catalogue exudes an unalloyed dreamy luxury in every respects as befits high-end perfume marketing. Cassandre a name adopted by the Ukrainian-born Adolphe Jean-Marie Mouron 1901-1968 -- his parents were French -- was a highly celebrated commercial artist theatrical designer magazine illustrator and poster artist. He worked heavily with the prestige printer Draeger as well as the couturier Lucien Lelong and others. In time he was awarded the French Legion of Honor. Lelong was a top Parisian couturier from the twenties til his retirement in the late forties. He was himself not a designer but rather relied on a stable of designers and among his proteges was Christian Dior. As this catalogue also shows dress designers were branching out into fragrances for a long time; this catalogue predates the creation of Chanel No. 5 by a few years. Light wear to the wraps -- a minor closed tear along the upper joint and some minor wrinkling or creasing to the cover paper. Otherwise clean and fresh. <br /><br /> Agence Générale de Publicité et de PropagandePrinter: E. Desfosses. paperback books

Normandie and the mischievous humor of the Duibonnet advertisements. Nicolas founded in 1822 really changed the way the French drank wine it was this house that first sold table wine in bottles rather than casks making it easier for the average person to drink a glass of wine at home rather than in a tavern This wine merchant was very particular in the 1929s and 1930 in the choice of the illustrator used for promotional pieces in addition to Cassandre the firm insisted on the services of Van Dongen Bernard Buffet and Raoul Dufy among others.

1246He writes "Dear Madam I was sorry not to see you in Paris before I left but I would have been even more sorry if you had shortened your vacation in Aix to be at that last meeting on the rue Lincoln. I left all necessary instructions first to your trusted Cabioch and then to Mrs. Joubert and I left town without any worry on the outcome of our current projects. I hope you were somehow entertained in Aix and that you will get some rest now in your small country house. For me I have settled down for the time being at the Mont d'Arbois above Niegeve. I hope I am able "to hold out" for at least ten days. Then I'll spend some time at the beach to try and get "a shot in the arm" somewhere around Le Touquet before going back to the rue de Bellechasse. Until then please trust dear Madam in my very friendly sympathy." He signs "A.M. Cassandre unknown books
