1937 & 1938 ORIGINAL MANUSCRIPT DIARIES OF A YOUNG BRITISH GIRL BOARDING AT A NORWICH RELIGIOUS SCHOOL

19370001294FAKENHAM NORWICH NORFOLK ENGLAND UK. Good. 1937. On offer are two 2 original manuscript diaries that are very interesting on many levels handwritten by Miss Zita Phillips a young English school girl fourteen or fifteen we guess who boards even though her family lives close by in what appears to be a religious all girls school in Fakenham near Norwich in Norfolk England. A casual reading tells one that she is of a wealthy family her father teaches occasionally at high school level the family travels in higher up local social circles and religion is important in many ways to the family. These diaries do a super service in providing a peek into the private world of a school girl away from home confiding to the diary the day to day happenings and yearnings of her mind and heart. She uses two 100 pp 8 x 6 inch hardcover notebooks adding dates. Of the two books; one is dated 1937 beginning in January running through to November 25th which is blank. The second book begins January 1st runs sporadically through August. This book while undated we deduce is from 1938 given the January 1st entry is a Sunday. At first the diaries appear to be written by a girl of limited abilities for schoolwork and short of some enthusiasm for Lacrosse not much else. She does prove to be a more intellectual author as we read more. Upon arriving home for what would be a 'Spring Break' the girl finds her father and mother in some re awakening of religious fervor. Zita rails at the announcement of compulsory morning prayers at home - 'of all the Puritanical ideas!' - she writes. Then a passage: 'Daddy questioned me about my religion and to think it over and to tell him. I won't be questioned about my religion.' This is a passionate young girl and when love does hit here it is a train. His name is Noel and for a number of pages she moons about him. And then there is Hal. Once she has met him and realized she can't stop thinking about him she begins a campaign to be with him. Our writer is not a dimwit as she references the world events such as Hitler's rise and Mussolini's battles. Zita also does a great job and local historians and collectors will have many clues which should identify the school and other missing details. She names among many many others: Betty Kellett Nita Brooks Dr. Fawkes Anne Purdy Betty Bristowe Felicity Moss Elizabeth Withers Helen Appleton Anne Daugbert 'my Dane' Sylvia Eckersley Elwyn Jones Felicity Moss-Blundell Patience Cunningham Bishop Bertram Pollock. She also mentions : at School Parliament she is proposed as gardening monitor reading 'In the Steps of St. Paul by HV Thorton playing a new game called Monopoly church in Sheringham and others 2 pages of secret writings in Greek printing notes on the coronation of George VI and much much more. Lacrosse is the sport of choice and there are a number of team lists she has noted names and positions. There has been some damp damage long ago but the books have aged well and save for a loose page and the odd damp-stains these books are overall G.; Manuscript; 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall; FAKENHAM NORWICH NORFOLK PHILLIPS WOMEN'S STUDIES GENDER STUDIES HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DOCUMENT LETTER AUTOGRAPH DIARY JOURNAL LOG KEEPSAKE WRITER HAND WRITTEN DOCUMENTS SIGNED LETTERS MANUSCRIPTS HISTORICAL HOLOGRAPH WRITERS DIARIES JOURNALS LOGS AUTOGRAPHS PERSONAL MEMOIR MEMORIAL PERSONAL HISTORY Archive Lot ENGLAND GREAT BRITAIN antiquité contrat vélin document manuscrit papier Antike Brief Pergament Dokument Manuskript Papier oggetto d'antiquariato atto velina documento manoscritto carta antigüedad hecho vitela documento manuscrito papel. . hardcover

The terrible word brought us bad luck. It was 1913: the following year we were packing our kits again. This time for real. And not all the guests came back."" p. 335 First edition one of only 6 copies printed on Hollande this being copy no. 1 of the deluxe issue. Bound in navy blue morocco backed boards with corners spine very lightly sunned with raised bands gilt date at foot marbled paper-covered boards and endpapers edges untrimmed top edge gilt covers and spine preserved. Binding signed Lavaux. A fine copy with wide margins attractively bound. Bookplate pasted to a flyleaf. The author's own copy profusely extra-illustrated of this magnificent Montmartre chronicle. Tipped in is an original ink portrait of Roland Dorgelès by Gus Bofa humorously captioned: ""Monsieur Roland Dorgelès dans son uniforme de rédacteur à la petite semaine"" Alongside two original photographs one depicting the famous Montmartre figure Francisque Poulbot in his Guignol theatre Agence Rol 1910 and the other a very rare photograph of the legendary Fête des Dernières Cartouches organised by Poulbot on 23 May 1913. We have located only one other known image of this event. The photograph shows the merry band of participants at Poulbots place on rue de lOrient dressed as soldiers from the Franco-Prussian War of 1870. The celebration which created quite a stir is recounted by Dorgelès in this book: One day or rather one night the uproar reached its height: when Poulbot gave his famous Dernières Cartouches party. The idea came to him after a dispute with his landlord on rue de lOrient who had refused to renew his lease. Poulbot had only recently moved in and had built a studio in the garden at his own expense. Does he think Im going to give it to him as a gift he fumed. He can rot! Ill barricade myself inside and wait for eviction. Right away we all swore to join him in defying the police just like at Fort Chabrol. But our tall friend was already improving the plan: Even better! Well dress up as soldiers from 1870 and defend ourselves like the Last Cartridges! The Maison des Dernières Cartouches was an inn in Bazeilles where French soldiers had made a heroic last stand during the fall of Sedan. Their sacrifice inspired a famous history painting by Alphonse de Neuville. By firing from the windows! By blowing everything up! The operation was immediately planned. Orders were issued stamped with the imperial eagle and the recruits assembled their own equipment not from a costume hire that wouldve been too easy. Old relics were unearthed ragmen looted the flea market raided for red trousers: in less than two weeks the battalion was fully outfitted. Everything was period-accurate down to the Chassepot rifles of Gravelotte. Even the weapons were authentic. Not a single gaiter button was missing. As the evening began rifle butts rattled the doors. The police No reinforcements. The Montparnasse reservists arrived soaked to the bone having marched across Paris in fours bayonets fixed greeted along the way by bewildered officers. We drank we sang we roared. Then we set off on patrol brimming with spirit and the honest folk returning from the cinema were startled to see soldiers appearing on corners and aiming at them: Halt! Who goes there Some caught on others stammered in fright: Whats happening What You didnt know War has been declared. There are some things though one shouldnt joke about. When our martial energy waned we all poured into the Lapin Agile and started singing Le Père la Victoire in chorus. It wasnt period-accurate but never mind. At dawn as the sky began to pale we gathered on rue Lepic officers drew their sabres the bugle sounded the charge and we launched an assault o Albin Michel hardcover

La Fleur d'or. Robe du soir de Worth pl.27 La Gazette du Bon ton 1920 n°4

192057600Paris: Lucien Vogel éditeur 1920. Fine. Lucien Vogel éditeur Paris Mai 1920 18 x 24 cm une feuille Original color print heightened in gold and palladium printed on laid paper unsigned. Original engraving created for the illustration of La Gazette du bon ton one of the most beautiful and influential fashion magazines of the 20th century celebrating the talent of French creators and artists at the height of the Art Deco movement. Famous fashion magazine founded in 1912 by Lucien Vogel La Gazette du bon ton was published until 1925 with an interruption during the War from 1915 to 1920 due to the mobilization of its editor-in-chief. It consists of 69 issues printed in only 2000 copies and is illustrated notably with 573 color plates and 148 sketches representing models by great couturiers. From their publication these luxurious publications ""addressed bibliophiles and society aesthetes"" Françoise Tétart-Vittu ""La Gazette du bon ton"" in Dictionnaire de la mode 2016. Printed on fine laid paper they used a typeface specially created for the magazine by Georges Peignot the Cochin typeface later adopted in 1946 by Christian Dior. The prints were created using the metal stencil technique heightened in colors and some highlighted in gold or palladium. The adventure began in 1912 when Lucien Vogel a man of society and fashion - he had already participated in the magazine Femina - decided to found with his wife Cosette de Brunhoff sister of Jean the father of Babar La Gazette du bon ton whose subtitle was then ""Art modes et frivolités"". Georges Charensol reports the words of the editor-in-chief: ""En 1910 observe-t-il il n'existait aucun journal de mode véritablement artistique et représentatif de l'esprit de son époque. Je songeais donc à faire un magazine de luxe avec des artistes véritablement modernes . J'étais certain du succès car pour la mode aucun pays ne peut rivaliser avec la France."" ""In 1910 he observed there was no fashion journal that was truly artistic and representative of the spirit of its time. I therefore thought of making a luxury magazine with truly modern artists . I was certain of success because for fashion no country can rival France."" ""Un grand éditeur d'art. Lucien Vogel"" in Les Nouvelles littéraires n°133 May 1925. The magazine's success was immediate not only in France but also in the United States and South America. Originally Vogel therefore brought together a group of seven artists: André-Édouard Marty and Pierre Brissaud followed by Georges Lepape and Dammicourt; and finally his friends from the École des beaux-arts who were George Barbier Bernard Boutet de Monvel or Charles Martin. Other talents quickly joined the team: Guy Arnoux Léon Bakst Benito Boutet de Monvel Umberto Brunelleschi Chas Laborde Jean-Gabriel Domergue Raoul Dufy Édouard Halouze Alexandre Iacovleff Jean Émile Laboureur Charles Loupot Charles Martin Maggie Salcedo. These artists mostly unknown when Lucien Vogel called upon them would later become emblematic and sought-after artistic figures. These same illustrators created the drawings for La Gazette's advertisements. The plates highlighted and sublimated the dresses of seven creators of the era: Lanvin Doeuillet Paquin Poiret Worth Vionnet and Doucet. The couturiers provided exclusive models for each issue. Nevertheless some of the illustrations featured no real model but only the illustrator's idea of contemporary fashion. La Gazette du bon ton was a decisive stage in the history of fashion. Combining aesthetic excellence and artistic unity it brought together for the first time the great talents from the worlds of arts letters and fashion and imposed through this alchemy a completely new image of woman elegant independent and bold also carried by the new generation of couturiers Coco Chanel Jean Patou Marcel Rochas. Acquired in 1920 by Condé Montrose Nast La Gazette du bon ton would largely inspire the new composition and aesthetic choices of Lucien Vogel éditeur unknown

This bureau or cadre manager like many others in China were called upon forcefully much of the time to expose and confess their so called crimes of anti-socialist revolution activity in the bureau they had worked in. This was unfortunately all too common during the Revolution and sometimes the results were fatal. This 19cm x 26cm 38 page document is comprised of papers held by paper clip with some small rusting to the clip and one page has a tape repair to the back. Overall G. HISTORICAL NOTE: As one online source succinctly sums up the times: "People's Republic of China from 1966 through 1976. Set into motion by Mao Zedong then Chairman of the Communist Party of China its stated goal was to enforce socialism in the country by removing capitalist traditional and cultural elements from Chinese society and impose Maoist orthodoxy within the Party.
