Hardcover. Condition: Used - Very Good. So much of daily life that we take for granted today simply didn't exist a century ago. Life before McDonald's restaurants, before frozen food? Remember shopping before the mall and the e-mall -- at Mom and Pop stores, or Woolworths? When corsets gave way to panty hose and wonderbras? Unlike LIFE: Our Century in Pictures -- a chronological overview of political and cultural events -- this next LIFE project is a richly illustrated, very entertaining cultural history of 100 years of change arranged not on a time line but by theme. It explores all the key aspects of daily life and how they have been transformed -- from the homes we live in, the jobs that employ us, the fashions we've worn and discarded, the ways we've brought up our children, and how we've entertained ourselves. Famous writers and experts will again contribute brief essays to open the chapters, sharing their personal take on that particular theme -- be it how notions of sex in America have shifted, or the evolution of pop music. The hundreds of images (some famous but most startlingly fresh) will capture the spirit of times past and present as only LIFE can do. LIFE: Our Century of Change recalls its bestselling precursor in format -- same trim, close to the same page count, similar dynamic design, and cover look -- but it is distinguished by a brilliant color background on the cover. From the team that created the bestselling 'LIFE: Our Century in Pictures' comes a photographic volume that surveys the incredible evolution of daily life in America over the past 100 years. Each chapter is introduced by essays by such writers as Dr. Sherwin Nuland, Erica Jong, Richard Rodriguez, John Leonard, Thomas Hine, and Stephanie Coontz.

BLUE CLOTH. Condition: FINE. Dust Jacket Condition: FINE-. FIRST EDITION (STATED). VII+ 424 PAGES, 773 PHOTOGRAPHS, INDEX TO PHOTOGRAPHS. Size: LARGE QUARTO.

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. No Jacket. 2nd Edition. Improved second edition with "more illustrations and a chart of silver dollars," the author acknowledging that "In the first (1936) edition the weakest point was the section on silver coins." Further, "Some dollar-like medallions have been included in the list and shown in illustrations. Some may care to collect these and some may not." The photos are indeed useful, as are the many translations offered of Chinese inscriptions. We find no warning here about counterfeits, although fakes (including those struck in base metals) now abound -- apparently this was not yet a major concern for collectors in the early stages of the hobby in the 1930s. The final 63 pages comprise a color-coded list or chart of the dynasties of China, with marginal comments placing these reigns in the context of events occurring simultaneously in the Western world. Reduced from $380. Illustrated with B&W photographs, color charts (illustrator).…
