MID CENTURY LIGHTING DOMESTIC LIGHT FIXTURES
Better Lighting MOE Light.
Fort Atkinson Wisconsin.: Moe Light Inc. 1950. Color Illustrated Lighting Fixture Catalog 11 x 8 ½ inches 49 pp. including verso rear cover. Small dog-ear crease top of front cover free edge; 9 inch crease to rear cover. Overall very good condition. Color key listing featured on catalog's last page provides page numbers directing readers to various rooms in the typical home were fixtures appropriate to each room are featured. The catalog is in very good clean condition with light diamond pattern abrasions on front cover. No WorldCat listing has been found. The illustrated front cover of catalog provides a real treat for idle minds. A man and a woman who appear to be arriving guests stand at the front door of a ranch style home ringing the doorbell. It is a dark night. To their left is a large picture window. The catalog is designed so that the reader can turn a stiff paper wheel tucked between the front cover and verso allowing pictures of the various rooms in the home to appear one after another in the picture window. Thus we are privileged to view as the wheel rotates the kitchen the bedroom the bathroom the dining room etc. Perhaps the point is to depict how lighting figures centrally in every room in the house but it is all a bit creepy. On verso of front cover the embedded wheel serves another function as a cut-away opening in a printed circle reveals what is labeled next to the opening "Question" Should lighting fixtures be used in the same room with table and floor lamps while below the "Question" there appears another cut-away opening: "Answer" "By all means. Lighting fixtures provide necessary blah blah etc. Turning the wheel permits a variety of questions and answers to appear. At bottom of the page text states "the questions in the wheel above and many more you will think of will be automatically answered as we take you from room to room in this gay and interesting catalog." With this format in mind the reader is guided through the following 49 pages of lighting fixtures illustrated in color. At the back of the catalog is a separate item a twelve page stapled pamphlet labeled "Confidential Dealers’ Price List." At the end of this list three illustrated pages featuring a variety of display apparati available from Moe Light Inc. are pictured. The Moe catalog and price list is a most interesting and expansive documentation of mid-century lighting for better or for worse. . Moe Light, Inc. unknown

MID CENTURY GENERAL INTERIOR DECORATING Steinweiss Alex and Erik Nitsche illus.

United States Gypsum Co. Copyright 1944. Booklet color and black and white illustrations 76pp 12 1/2 x 9 1/2 inches color pictorial wrappers; with additional plastic comb bound "Planning File" with a single sheet of color coded tabs and dozens of sheets for filing all contained within a color pictorial folder 13 x 10 1/2 inches. Light wear to folder; booklet and Planning File in very good clean condition. The artwork on this cover is the work of Alex Steinweiss termed "the father of record design.who in 1940 at the age of 23 single-handedly invented the album cover. He made thousands of classical jazz and pop covers." Taschen Publishers. Within the illustrated cover of the first of the "Pak's" two booklets features a colorful photo of a woman gluing handsome antique botanical prints to a lemon yellow wall. Turning the page we are informed in a headline: "This book is full of ideas." Indeed. In the 80 plus pages that follow these ideas pertaining to interior and exterior design are spewed forth right and left. A sampling of helpful ideas includes: "Tear out an ugly mantel"; "Remove bulkiness of dark chests by covering with wallpaper"; "Hang an odd window with plants." Tips from professional decorators are provided and individual rooms are then dealt with: Beauty For Living Rooms Gracious Dining Make Your Kitchen Work For You Ideas For Bathrooms Bedrooms male and female Little Things For Your Children Make Room For Fun Remodel Your Hall. Further sections round out the ideas for the interior; the discussion then shifts to ideas for the exterior of the home including chapters on remodeling interiors as well as exteriors. Numerous before-and-after images are provided documenting the handiwork. There follows an extensive pictorial inventory of building materials produced by the publisher The United States Gypsum Company. The booklet's final chapter focuses on landscaping. A green sheet representing lawn topped by a bit of blue sky is provided; a photo of the reader's home so the instructions state is to be placed on this sheet. The reader is then instructed to cut out printed images representing trees shrubs flower borders etc. appearing on the opposing page and next to place these on the green sheet in the vicinity of the photo of the home. This presumably addresses all landscaping issues. The artwork in this section of the book is signed by the noted Swiss graphic designer and poster artist Erik Nitsche. A separate booklet titled "Popular Home Planning File" follows the one discussed above. A sheet of perforated gummed paper with various detachable captioned tabs "Attic" "Roof and Chimney" "Closets" etc. is provided. These tabs are to be glued to the 20 plus file pages that follow. Clippings or pamphlets of interest to the home decorator/remodeler can be securely attached to the appropriate page utilizing perforated gummed flaps with which each file page is equipped. Intriguingly on the cover of this booklet is a photo of a well-coifed woman seated in a chair; she is surrounded by fabric swatches and color charts and is dutifully clipping something to stuff into the opened "Planning File" on her lap. The photo is framed in a black surround giving the unmistakable impression that the woman has been sucked into the harrowing Black Hole of Decorating. This astonishing and uncommon twin "Pak of Ideas" in very good condition offers a comprehensive compilation engaging for better or for worse mid-century modern views of decorating landscaping and remodeling. .

Lancaster PA.: Armstrong Cork Company. Copyright 1954. Booklet color photo illustrations 18pp 8 1/2 x 11 inches stiff paper wrappers. 1/4 inch spot to front cover; interior in very good condition. Page after cringe-making page of converted spaces--basements and garages--in which Armstrong Asphalt Tile is utilized as floor covering. Ten large color photos with clever captions draw us into the world of sow's-ear-turned-purse: "Parties Are Gay in a Room Like This"; "Rooftop Atmosphere--Down in the Basement"; "Your Rumpus Room Can Be Anything You Like"; "A Handsome Apartment--in the Garage!" Cold-War Era furnishings and decor plus patterned asphalt floor coverings aim to turn a dank spot bright and cheerful. An intriguing booklet in very good condition suggesting how the good life can be had on a modest budget down in the basement. . Armstrong Cork Company. unknown

MID CENTURY FLOOR COVERINGS
Successful Decorating With the Modern Fashion in Floors.
Lancaster PA.: Armstrong Cork Company. Copyright 1957. Booklet color photo illustrations 32pp 8 1/2 x 11 inches color pictorial stiff paper wrappers. Very good condition. A dozen remarkably decorated rooms featuring late 50s decor are pictured in full-page color photos promoting Armstrong floor coverings. Bright fast food colors pulsate through many of the rooms and two pages of the booklet are devoted to a vapid discussion of color values which "give a room a special atmosphere. For example reds and browns give a room warmth yellow makes it sunny and cheerful." etc. The homeowner is encouraged to "use the floor as your starting point and then build your entire color scheme around it." Choices painful to a contemporary palette are much in evidence. Asphalt tile is a featured product. The booklet in excellent condition provides an engrossing encounter with the aesthetics of the modern home at the moment when America was poised to enter the Space Age. Included with the booklet are three stapled sheets detailing the design and furnishings for what is termed a "Dining Kitchen." . Armstrong Cork Company. unknown
