Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Black cloth spine over burgundy paper-covered boards with white paper title onlay to front cover, illustrated endpapers, illustrated in color throughout. Toning from newsprint laid in between pages xii-xiii, else a fine copy. Is it a manufacturer's catalog? A literary zine? An art journal? From t…he manufacturer's website: "Throughout the 1930s and continuing through the 1950s, PHOENIX history was spoken elegantly through The Phoenix Flame, a stylish magazine that combined advertising and product highlights of the Phoenix Metal Cap Company along with poetry, humor and art. Editor-in-Chief, Hal Higdon, better known as HIG to the Phoenix Flame?s readers, gracefully juxtaposed style and function in a monthly publication that reached far beyond the manufacturers of products who purchased metal closures. This beautifully bound, high quality, saddle-stitched, print piece brought the wit and wisdom of life alive through full-color illustrations, black and white photography, and world-class writing.".
