Item description from seller

114, xviii p. Fair to good copy, the spine is very worn and very partial and the covers are a little soiled. The interior or the pages of this book are nearly fine. There are five tipped-in photographic plates of paintings by famous artists which are counted in the paging. There are three (dare I call them color lithographs) which are printed only on one side of the leaf and these leaves are not counted in the paging. These three lithographs (?) are: 1. BENITO: Le Tailleur Marcel Rochas. 2. CHRISTIAN BERARD: Schiaparelli Circus. 3. SAM: Le "new look", de Christian Dior. The inscription to an unnamed person is signed by M. Rochas / Le 10 Mai 1951 is in French and translates as follows: "It seems that you were a "love" even though it surprises me a bit. I give thanks to your precious assistance and the contribution of documents which have helped me realize my work. I bless the Joy and damn the "Cruelle" with the hope that I will conquer her one day." Size: Folio - over 12" - 15" tall.
