195061482Tokyo Japan: Mikimoto ca. 1950. Oblong folio. 14.5 x 11.5 x 1.4 in. Original wooden shadow box sample display case holding 10 opened & cleaned pearl oyster shells on white padded fibers and 5 varying grades of cultured pearls showing progression of growth minor scuffing to corners of polished wood frame backed w/ birch plywood box a VG exemplar. Commercial cultured pearls were first developed by Kokichi Mikimoto who succeeded in creating semi-spherical cultured pearls in 1893 by developing the exacting method of inserting grains into pearl oysters and harvesting two years. later. The company exhibited at many International World’s Fairs in the succeeding years and following World War I gained a foothold in Europe during the Art Deco jewelry phase. Virulently opposed by European jewelers who attacked cultured pearls as imitations rather than real pearls Mikimoto would win the lawsuit at the “Paris Trial†and quickly established the custom of distributing trade literature explaining the pearl process as well as visual sample cases. Although the 1930’s saw the emergence of very good glass imitation pearls cultured pearls continued to be valued and in post-World War II America reached their heyday with elegance and femininity favored with designs inspired by Grace Kelly and later Jackie Kennedy of single strands of pearls and pearl studs. These sample boxes continued to remind customers that the pearls were actually cultivated and harvested from oysters.

George Bywater Cluett 1838-1912 and Frederick Forrest Peabody 1858-1927 were pioneers in the shirt & replaceable collar industry in Troy NY who created the iconic Arrow brand detachable Collars and shirts. They formed their company from Cluett & Sons to Cluett Peabody & Co. in 1899 and rapidly grew their business by providing women with an easier way to clean their husbands’ stained shirt collars without having to wash the entire shirt. In addition the collars wore out a much faster rate than the rest of the shirts so these replaceable collars would extend the life of the garments. Monarch shirts were famed for their durability and patented their Patent Bound Bosom Shirt which became known to consumers across the country as the Monarch Shirt. In 1905 the company launched the iconic campaign for Arrow Shirts with the famed illustrations by Joseph Leyendecker which ran for over 25 years. Various Cluett divisions maintained offices and showrooms in New York through 2002 and then in 2004 the Arrow Shirt brand was acquired by Phillips-Van Heusen Corp.

Cases of AIDS have been reported in a majority of countries throughout the world indicating that the HIV/AIDS epidemic is international in scope.This book deals with the mathematical and statistical techniques underlying the models used to understand the population dynamics of not only HIV/AIDS but also other infectious diseases. Attention is given to the development strategies for the prevention and control of the international epidemic within the frameworks of the models. Two distinguishing features of the book are the incorporation of stochastic and deterministic formulations within a unifying conceptual framework and the discussion of issues related to the mathematical designs of models which are necessary for the rigorous utilization of computer-intensive methods. The book will be of value to applied mathematicians biomathematicians biostatisticians epidemiologists and other scientists interested in applying mathematics and computers to not only the HIV/AIDS epidemic but also other fields of epidemiology.
