Folders with inserts of various kinds about good living.Text below from the NY Times, Oct. 19, 1976:Pari passu is a Latin phrase that means "with equal pace, speed or progress, side by side."Sharon Kibbee de Lobo took the two words, ran them togethe…r and came up with a title that captured precisely the dual purposes of a venture for women that she founded a year ago.Pari Passu is a morthly publication that deals with fashion, decorating, food and entertaining, along with all sorts of miscellaneous subjects. But the $50 annual fee also includes a counseling service: Subscribers have the right to seek comprehensive advice or direct help six times a year.For example, Mrs. de Lobo and her staff of four (she also uses a number of freelance experts) have helped one woman decide what breed of dog would be best suited temperamentally to her 6?year?old daughter and not cause any damage to the family's Beekman Place apartment.They had another client's favorite but fraying blouse copied in four colors and decorated another's new pool house from top to bottom. The floor was actually diagramed and cut into pieces here and shipped to St. Louis.The other day Mrs. de Lobo was busy on the final details for a Sheridan, WM, hostess who plans to give two Chinese dinners next month, each with 100 guests.
