Hardcover. Condition: Fair. No Jacket. 1st Edition. Mr. Pearly of Pepper Pot Lane was written by Eleanor Thomas and illustrated by Charlotte Becker. The book was published by Charles Scribner's Sons in 1939 and appears to be a First Edition though it's not specifically stated as such. (It DOES have the letter "A" where a number line might today.) It's an ex-library copy in fair condition, has no dust jacket, and has been rebound by the library in nice, clean, sturdy boards. The book has library markings and the library wear from many children's hands having turned the pages . . . some occasional smudges, an occasional tape repair job by the library, and some "unfolded" dog ears. Nevertheless the book should be quite readable for many more years, and Becker's illustrations (both color and black-and-white) are still neat. The book is 6 1/4" by 7 7/8" and has 84 pages . . . charm and nostalgia. "Mr. Pearly was a London coster who owned a mischievous donkey, and their adventures are here set forth in amusing text and sprightly pictures." Thank you. Charlotte Becker (illustrator).…

Published by HarperCollins in 2002, the oversize hardcover surveys Vreeland's editorial work at Harper's Bazaar and Vogue and her later role transforming the Metropolitan Museum of Art Costume Institute into a destination for major fashion exhibitions. Full-color photographs and illustrations appear throughout its 308 pages, produced in Japan to quality production standards consistent with the book's large illustrated format. Opening photographs are credited to Jonathan Becker, and the volume draws on fashion photography, editorial archives, and portraiture across its full run. Eleanor Dwight's biography situates Vreeland within the broader arc of twentieth-century American fashion journalism, from the interwar period through the cultural prominence of Vogue in the 1960s and Vreeland's subsequent museum career. The 2002 HarperCollins volume appears as a collected reference for fashion history, Vogue editorial history, and the photography associated with Vreeland's long tenure in American fashion.
