The Medical Surgical Relief  Committee in New York is featured for supplying much needed medical supplies all over the world in times of war.

Lots of war references as usual for these wartime issues. Highly collectable time pieces with fashion and historical content.

There is a fascinating article by Countess Waldeck about living in Germany before the war and the insidious and terrifying reality of the Nazi regimes re-ordering of society. It's well written putting the horrors in context and very poignant (1942 before everything was known about what was really going on) in 'Notes on Nazis'  the state of personal life of love, books and women under Nazi rule.  

There is a wonderful two page illustrated Red Shoe article.

A fascinating article about the Circus in times of war with photographs of clowns.

Facts on food.

Katharine Hepburn, Orsen Wells and Ginger Rogers all feature in a fun article 'Who do you think you are'.

Lots of wartime rationing of food, clothing and transportation. 

Fashion photography by Horst, Toni Frissell, and John Rawlings.

Fashion illustrations by Carl Erickson (Eric) and Bolin. 

A colour art page featuring a Renoir painting. 

Dresses under $20.

114 pages

Excellent condition. There's one small clipping towards the back; a small 2" square piece torn of a hairstyle from page 83 - see 2nd last photo. Exceptional for a magazine of this vintage, you can see a photographs of the actual magazine front and back. Still incredibly rare and sought after.

Shipping includes tracking and insurance. We are happy to combine orders and pass on the savings to you.
