Item description from seller

Gray cloth folder, H 28.25cm x L 22cm, with foxing/toning and staining. Folder's interior sides likewise have strong toning/staining. Eleven magazine-style issues bound by two metal clasp chains (as issued?). Varied toning/foxing to covers with the interior leaves lightly affected mostly at margins but otherwise clean. "Personal Analysis Guide" at 32 pages plus covers; ten issues each with 32 pages but sequentially paged (excluding their covers) as 1-320. Copyright dates on front cover versos specify 1950 and 1952 but Library of Congress catalog cites 1957; style of publications certainly seems to favor early 1950s rather than late 50s. Contributors and their specialties are: Clara Ogilvie (Care of the Hair); Charles Revson (Care of the Nails); Frankie Van (Diet); Patricia Coffin (Etiquette); Helen Fraser (Exercise); Philip Cortney (How to Use Perfume); Mr. John [John P. John] (How to Wear Hats); Lily Pons (Poise and Personality); Helena Rubinstein (Skin Care); Emily Wilkens (Teen-Age Success); Maurice Rentner (Your Clothes); George Keaney (Your Health); Marguerite Benson (Your Legs); and Diana Barrymore (Your Speech). Please note that this book has an approximate shipping weight of 3.75 pounds (1.7 kg) and may require additional postage for any postal class other than domestic Media Mail.…
