Flair Magazine: Complete Set of 12 Magazines, February 1950-January 1951

by Fleur Cowles

  • Used
  • Hardcover
  • first
This is the complete set of the 12 monthly issues that were printed of "Flair" which was edited by Fleur Fenton Cowles published in New York. It was known for its popular writers and quality production. These are in the original hardcover canvas collectible binders, plus the hardcover 1953 Annual. Includes all issues from February, 1950 through December, 1950, plus the 1953 Flair Annual. "In 1950, Fleur Cowles established what would become one of the most important and talked about magazines ever created. Critically lauded for its sharp mix of clothes, literature, art, travel, decor, theater, and humor, Flair made publishing history with its combination of eclectic editorial content and lavish production quality. Recalled as 'the first magazine that became an art form.'" This innovative publication folded after only the one year due to the exceptional cost of production. Each issue had a cut-out front cover and over lay. Flair features interviews and contributions from noted artists and celebrities including Lucian Freud, Jean Cocteau, Tallulah Bankhead, Saul Steinberg, Salvador Dalí, Simone de Beauvoir, Walker Evans, James Michener, Ogden Nash, Gypsy Rose Lee, Clare Boothe Luce, George Bernard Shaw, John O'Hara, Margaret Mead, and Tennessee Williams. All the advertisements are artist is, from cars to cosmetics, and feature travel articles about places like Morocco, Paris, and London. They will appeal to vintage fashion collectors and anyone interested in 1950's lifestyle. Each binder: 14" x 10-1/4"x 2-1/2". Annual: 13-1/2" x 10-1/4" x 1". Condition: Very good condition with some occasional foxing. The edges of the canvas binders have some small fraying.

Translated from the original Portuguese manuscripts by Jackim le Grande. First edition.Born in Lisbon, he entered the Order of Jesus at the age of sixteen. In 1621 he was ordered as a missionary to India, and in 1622 he arrived at Goa. With the intention of proceeding to Abyssinia, whose Negus (emperor) Segued had been converted to Roman Catholicism by Pedro Páez, he left India in 1624. He disembarked on the coast of Mombasa, and attempted to reach his destination through the Galla country, but was forced to return. In 1625 he set out again, accompanied by Mendez, the patriarch of Ethiopia, and eight missionaries.

Description:
London: Jonah Bowyer, 1717 A good copy of the first English edition (published one year after the French 1st publication) with 37 fine engraved plates, maps and charts as called for. Frezier was a French royal military engineer, and was asked to undertake a voyage to Spanish possessions in South America to study fortifications and to chart the western coast. The first section covers his voyage from France round Cape Horn and the second gives detail of his voyage along the coast of Chile and Peru. His observations were valuable and he gives interesting accounts of local people and customs. Of interest now (particularly for those with golfing and strawberry eating interests) are his depictions of a sport that looks like golf and his discovery of strawberries which he introduced to France. Frezier made some geographical errors which Halley (of comet fame) corrects in this edition.
In contemporary panelled calf which has been expertly rebacked to provide a newer spine with raised bands and title label.… Read More

(Borba de Moraes, page I:453; European Americana 733/146; Sabin 38591) First edition.Joseph-François Lafitau was a French Jesuit missionary, ethnologist, and naturalist. He is best known for his use of the comparative method in the field of scientific anthropology, the discovery of ginseng, and his writings on the Iroquois. Lafitau was the first of the Jesuit missionaries in Canada to have a scientific point of view. Lafitau is considered the first of the modern ethnographers and a precursor of scientific ethnology for his work on the Iroquois. He developed a model of studying peoples that involved describing existing cultures on their own terms—not in comparison to European society. He distinguished generic and specific traits,… Read More

When he comes to describe Jerusalem he makes this remarkable statement; Do not set out...resolved to make discoveries. There is not a foot of ground that has not been already scrutinized by a thousand eyes as keen as yours, and the old adage, "If new not true," may be applied to Jerusalem and her monuments with more propriety than to any other place on earth...." - Introduction from Poet and Peasant: A… Read More

The pieces in this collection, written between 1956 and 1961 and including short fiction, a radio play, and a stunning early novel, offer startling insights into Cohens imagination and creative process. Cohen explores themes that would permeate his later work, from shame and unworthiness to sexual desire in all its sacred and profane dimensions to longing, whether for love, family, freedom, or transcendence.
