Two vintage black and white photographs advertising the legendary Ohrbach's department store in the Wilshire Prudential Insurance Company building today home of the Screen Actors Guild. An strong example the apex of its mid-century design in Los Angeles. Stamped on the verso by Woro Studio the agency who shot and struck the photographs for the store's use at<br/><br/>Ohrbach's was a moderately-priced department store with a merchandising focus primarily on clothing and accessories. From its modest start in 1923 Ohrbach's expanded dramatically after World War II and opened numerous branch locations in the metro areas of New York New Jersey and Los Angeles. The growth of the fashion industry in California encouraged the company's expansion to the state and the firm employed the services of a buying office in Los Angeles as early as 1939 and opened its own office in 1945<br/><br/>In 1948 Ohrbach's leased three floors and the mezzanine in a wing of the Prudential Insurance Company building designed by Welton Becket and William Wurdeman on Wilshire Boulevard's Miracle Mile. The success of the Miracle Mile store led the firm to open another branch in Downtown Los Angeles in 1953 when it acquired the twelve-story Milliron's building at 5th and Broadway. <br/><br/>8 x 10 inches.

4 volumes L'oeuvre complete. Hardbacks, 305x230mm, 544p,+ 544p + 528p +544p et 4500 colour illustrations, French edition . ISBN 9782915542608. Pendant sept decennies, Charlotte Perriand (1903-1999) a contribue a faconner le monde de ses inventions, laissant derriere elle un sillage d'images, d'objets, de lieux et d'edifices, autant de registres d'une oeuvre qui apparait desormais dans toute son ampleur. Ce premier volume de l'oeuvre complete offre une analyse detaillee de ses premieres annees de creation, tres fertiles, aussi bien dans le domaine du design que de l'architecture ou de la photographie. S'appuyant en grande partie sur les archives conservees par la famille de l'artiste dans son atelier parisien, il permet de faire la lumiere sur ses sources, son environnement, ses annees d'apprentissage a l'ecole de l'Union centrale des arts decoratifs, ainsi que sa rencontre et son association avec Pierre Jeanneret et Le Corbusier, en 1928, qui va donner naissance a des meubles emblematiques tels que la Chaise longue basculante (1928), et a ses premiers amenagements (la villa Savoye, la villa Church, la villa Martinez de Hoz). Il nous fait egalement decouvrir son engagement militant, qui l'amene a voyager a Moscou, puis a reflechir a une architecture vernaculaire au service du peuple, qui aboutira notamment, dans les annees 30, a la Maison au bord de l'eau (1934), a un centre de vacances (1935), ou encore a ses premieres architectures de montagne. Les annees 30 sont par ailleurs celles de la creation de l'UAM, dont elleest l'un des membres fondateurs aux cotes de Robert Mallet-Stevens, mais aussi de sa rupture ideologique avec Le Corbusier, qui va l'amener, a l'oree de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, a faire cavalier seul.
Hardcover with dusjacket 2 volumes / slipcase; complet.223+ 327 pages, Illustrated. fine condition. ISBN 9787872412511. Widely considered as the best assessment of modern Danish furniture available in English and are beautifully illustrated with historic photographs and new photographs of surviving pieces. Many of the photographs of some of the best pieces in museums and public buildings in Copenhagen appear to have been taken specifically for the book. Full-page photographs are set out facing reproductions of original presentation or technical drawings. Karlsen was an architect who worked with Mogens Koch, to whom the volumes are dedicated, and he approaches the subject through his hands-on experience as a furniture designer. The volumes provide a very readable and a very good broad chronological overview but what makes them invaluable is the addition of detailed and critical assessments of the most important and influential examples of chairs, tables and storage furniture produced through the century.

196056965Pasadena CA: n.p. ca. 1960. Folio. 14.5 x 20 in. Twelve original gouache paintings on thick artist’s board 10 of them either w/ typed or manuscript labels 1 entitled “Garden Party†written in manuscript at upper fore-edge 8 preserving their cloth fabric swatch samples some w/ designer’s notes trimmings etc. All are preserved in a gray linen clamshell case minor edgewear rubbing wear to corners still a well-preserved fine set of paintings. This nicely executed set of fashion designs were apparently created for a Civil War theatre production in Southern California around 1960 with characters named Florence Bagshot Mrs. Ludley Bagshot Agatha Mrs. W.D.P.S. and Mrs. Forbes. The designs primarily focused on the women characters including one of a nurse standing in costume in gray striped dress apron and cap with Confederate cavalry trooper in kepi astride his horse and hatless officer with sash standing in the background. Many of the designs reflect the colour palate of the early 1960’s with avocado green vivid blues solid brown earth tones and bright nearly neon orange gauze fabrics in the renderings and samples which would not have been common in those combinations during the Civil War era. Still most of the dress designs incorporate the hoop skirts of the period often with crinoline and/or crinoline cage hoop skirts and high collars with ties and ribbons at the neck and trim patterns typical of the period. The design for Florence Bagshot’s bedroom wear incorporates elements of Mid 20th-Century design and sensibilities rather than the more common chemise and sturdy cotton for the 1860’s. The Confederate Nurse design was painted on “Brownie Board Cold Pressed Duncan Vail Co. Los Angeles†which appears in California art supply advertising from about 1960-1963. We were unable to identify the production after an extensive search through contemporary theatre production trade magazines newspapers and other industry publications. n.p., hardcover
