1847865311847. FASHION - WOMEN'S - PERIODICAL LE PETIT MESSAGER DES MODES ET LE CONFIDENT REUNIS: TOME VII NOS. 1-17 22-24; TOME IX NOS. 1-13 15-17. Paris: Imprim. Schneider et Langrand 1847 and 1849. Thirty-six issues illustrated with 72 lovely hand-colored engraved plates of which 33 are by Heloise Leloir and 12 by Laure Colin Noel. Quarto. Text: 27-136169-192; 104113-128121-128 pp. 10 1/4 by 7 in. Nineteenth-century binding: quarter black morocco marbled boards gilt title on spine marbled endpapers. The binding is shelfworn with top joint is starting and lower joint tender. The first issue is missing four text pages; otherwise despite some misleading errors in pagination all text is present. Most issues have a timbre royal mark a French duty stamp on one text page but not on the plates. The plates are generally clean and fresh; however there are a few exceptions: 1. - Both plates in Vol. VII no. 1 have old paper repairs on the inner margin and the top fore-corner of one has been clipped; 2. - The two plates in Vol. VII no. 2 have been trimmed 1/4" shy of the fore-edge of the bookblock; 3. - One plate in Vol. IX no. 15 which is the only horizontal image in the entire volume has been trimmed to the top-edge of the image at the fore-edge. LE PETIT MESSAGER DES MODES was a bi-weekly publication appearing on the 1st and 16th of each month comprised of eight pages of text that was to include 22 engraved plates and 3 large patterns in each six-month period. This volume is bound without any of the large patterns and instead an additional plate has been inserted wherever a pattern is called for. These `extra' plates have been supplied from issues that are not included in this volume. Although most issues are complete with text and appropriate plates together there are twelve instances in this volume including the plates-for-patterns substitutions of plates being misbound or of a plate from another issue replacing the expected plate. And so while the plates are lovely and in very good condition it is for these reasons that the volume is offered as is. unknown books

Nearly two thirds with stamps on the verso or other identifying information for the photographers or photography studios. <br/><br/>Roughly half of the photographs feature window displays from Peck & Peck a New York based chain that at its peak had 78 stores across the United States including images from its flagship store on 5th Avenue in New York. Also included are 26 photographs of displays at the nearby Stern's as well as 19 photographs from photography studios in Southern California including Los Angeles Long Beach and Pasadena 8 of which are identified as being from Buffum's stores. <br/><br/>The window displays in this collection predominantly feature mannequins showcasing women's clothing and accessories with a smaller number featuring children and teens and occasional ones focused on furniture or household decorations. The displays are arranged in such a way that they create abstract aspirational narratives around travel parties and leisure activities in retrospect giving historical context not to mention a surreal frozen-in-time quality to the Mid-century modern design and fashion. Taken as a whole a fairly comprehensive look at the focus and psychology of women's advertising and fashion in the American mid-century. <br/><br/>10 x 8 inches.
