Hardcover. Condition: Very Good+. Decorative cloth over boards, printed paper label mounted to upper board; 12.5-by-12.5 inches; approx. pp. 200, with full-color illustrations -- reproductions of drawings and paintings -- cut from unidentified (though, likely, numerous) sources, and neatly affixed to every page. There is plenty of art deco, though the illustrations vary in style, with a focus on fashion, architecture, interiors, and potraits. It seems that our editor was concerned primarily with what's pretty, and she succeeds. An excellent breaker or display copy, offering a nice look at the costumes, fashions, and trends of the period. Binding shaken; cloth a bit frayed at tips.
