No.1 February 7th, 1937 'Hatman's Review: Incorporating Mercery Lines' Offical Organ of the Hat Trade Wonderful illustrated trade journal with lively advisements for local businesses and headlines on everything from the 'MARKET REPORT: RABBIT SKINS' to ' M. STALIN ORDERS DINNER JACKET: The Moscow correspondent of the "…Daily Sketch" says that an almost revolutionary change in drawing room fashions in Moscow is indicated by an order for a dinner jacket for the Soviet dictator (M. Stalin). It would have been unwise even a few months ago for a Soviet diplomat to wear evening dress at domestic gatherings. M. Stalin invariably wore a black and grey uniform coat or a Russian shirt. Lately hints have been dropped that evening dress should be encouraged to express Moscow's prosperity.'. Quarto, 12 pages, pale green illustrated paper wrappers, staple-bound, a very good copy.
