A Biarritz chez Madeleine Vionnet pl.11 La Gazette du Bon ton 1924-1925 n°2
Paris: Lucien Vogel éditeur 1924. Fine. Lucien Vogel éditeur Paris 1924-1925 36 x 24 cm une feuille Double original color print printed on vergé paper signed in the plate. An original print used to illustrate the Gazette du bon ton one of the most attractive and influential 20th century fashion magazines featuring the talents of French artists and other contributors from the burgeoning Art Deco movement. A celebrated fashion magazine established in 1912 by Lucien Vogel La Gazette du bon ton appeared until 1925 with a hiatus from 1915 to 1920 due to the war the editor-in-chief having been called up for service. It consisted of 69 issues printed in only 2000 copies each and notably illustrated with 573 color plates and 148 sketches of the models of the great designers. Right from the start this sumptuous publication was aimed at bibliophiles and fashionable society Françoise Tétart-Vittu La Gazette du bon ton in Dictionnaire de la mode 2016 and was printed on fine vergé paper using a type cut specially for the magazine by Georges Peignot known as Cochin later used in 1946 by Christian Dior. The prints were made using stencils heightened in colors some highlighted in gold or palladium. The story began in 1912 when Lucien Vogel a man of the world involved in fashion he had already been part of the fashion magazine Femina decided with his wife Cosette de Brunhoff the sister of Jean creator of Babar to set up the Gazette du bon ton subtitled at the time: Art fashion frivolities. Georges Charensol noted the reasoning of the editor-in-chief: In 1910 he observed there was no really artistic fashion magazine nothing representative of the spirit of the time. My dream was therefore to make a luxury magazine with truly modern artists
I was assured of success because when it comes to fashion no country on earth can compete with France. Un grand éditeur dart. Lucien Vogel in Les Nouvelles littéraires no. 133 May 1925. The magazine was immediately successful not only in France but also in the United States and Latin America. At first Vogel put together a team of seven artists: André-Édouard Marty and Pierre Brissaud followed by Georges Lepape and Dammicourt as well as eventually his friends from school and the School of Fine Arts like George Barbier Bernard Boutet de Monvel and Charles Martin. Other talented people soon came flocking to join the team: Guy Arnoux Léon Bakst Benito Boutet de Monvel Umberto Brunelleschi Chas Laborde Jean-Gabriel Domergue Raoul Dufy Édouard Halouze Alexandre Iacovleff Jean Émile Laboureur Charles Loupot Chalres Martin Maggie Salcedo. These artist mostly unknown when Lucien Vogel sought them out later became emblematic and sought-after artistic figures. It was also they who worked on the advertising drawings for the Gazette. The plates put the spotlight on and celebrate dresses by seven designers of the age: Lanvin Doeuillet Paquin Poiret Worth Vionnet and Doucet. The designers provided exclusive models for each issue. Nonetheless some of the illustrations are not based on real models but simply on the illustrators conception of the fashion of the day. The Gazette du bon ton was an important step in the history of fashion. Combining aesthetic demands with the physical whole it brought together for the first time the great talents of the artistic literary and fashion worlds; and imposed through this alchemy a completely new image of women: slender independent and daring which was shared by the new generation of designers including Coco Chanel Jean Patou Marcel Rochas and so on
Taken over in 1920 by Condé Montrose Nast the Gazette du bon ton was an important influence on the new layout and aesthetics of that little dying paper that Nast had bought a few years earlier: Vogue. Lucien Vogel éditeur unknown

THAYAHT - (Madeleine VIONNET)
Une robe de Madeleine Vionnet pl.62 La Gazette du Bon ton 1922 n°8
Paris: Lucien Vogel éditeur 1922. Fine. Lucien Vogel éditeur Paris 1922 18 x 24 cm une feuille Original color print printed on laid paper signed at bottom right of the plate. La Gazette du bon ton one of the most beautiful and influential fashion magazines of the 20th century celebrating the talent of French creators and artists at the height of the Art Deco movement. Famous fashion magazine founded in 1912 by Lucien Vogel La Gazette du bon ton was published until 1925 with an interruption during the War from 1915 to 1920 due to the mobilization of its editor-in-chief. It comprises 69 issues printed in only 2000 copies and is illustrated notably with 573 color plates and 148 sketches representing models by great couturiers. From their publication these luxurious publications ""addressed bibliophiles and worldly aesthetes"" Françoise Tétart-Vittu ""La Gazette du bon ton"" in Dictionnaire de la mode 2016. Printed on fine laid paper they use a typeface specially created for the magazine by Georges Peignot the Cochin character adopted in 1946 by Christian Dior. The prints are created using the metal pochoir technique heightened in colors and for some highlighted with gold or palladium. The adventure begins in 1912 when Lucien Vogel man of society and fashion - he had already participated in the magazine Femina - decides to found with his wife Cosette de Brunhoff sister of Jean the father of Babar the Gazette du bon ton whose subtitle was then ""Art modes et frivolités"". Georges Charensol reports the words of the editor-in-chief: ""En 1910 observe-t-il il n'existait aucun journal de mode véritablement artistique et représentatif de l'esprit de son époque. Je songeais donc à faire un magazine de luxe avec des artistes véritablement modernes . J'étais certain du succès car pour la mode aucun pays ne peut rivaliser avec la France."" ""In 1910 he observes there was no truly artistic fashion journal representative of the spirit of its time. I therefore thought of making a luxury magazine with truly modern artists . I was certain of success because in fashion no country can rival France."" ""Un grand éditeur d'art. Lucien Vogel"" in Les Nouvelles littéraires n°133 mai 1925. The magazine's success was immediate not only in France but also in the United States and South America. Originally Vogel thus assembled a group of seven artists: André-Édouard Marty and Pierre Brissaud followed by Georges Lepape and Dammicourt; and finally his friends from the École des beaux-arts who were George Barbier Bernard Boutet de Monvel and Charles Martin. Other talents quickly joined the team: Guy Arnoux Léon Bakst Benito Boutet de Monvel Umberto Brunelleschi Chas Laborde Jean-Gabriel Domergue Raoul Dufy Édouard Halouze Alexandre Iacovleff Jean Émile Laboureur Charles Loupot Charles Martin Maggie Salcedo. These artists mostly unknown when Lucien Vogel called upon them would subsequently become emblematic and sought-after artistic figures. These same illustrators created the drawings for the Gazette's advertisements. The plates highlight and sublimate the dresses of seven creators of the period: Lanvin Doeuillet Paquin Poiret Worth Vionnet and Doucet. The couturiers provided exclusive models for each issue. Nevertheless some of the illustrations show no real model but only the illustrator's idea of contemporary fashion. La Gazette du bon ton is a decisive step in fashion history. Combining aesthetic standards and visual unity it brought together for the first time the great talents from the worlds of arts letters and fashion and established through this alchemy a completely new image of women slender independent and bold also carried by the new generation of couturiers Coco Chanel Jean Patou Marcel Rochas. Acquired in 1920 by Condé Montrose Nast the Gazette du bon ton would largely inspire the new composition and aesthetic choices of the ""dying little journal"" that Nast had purchased a few years earlier: Vogue magazine.

The Albaugh-Dover Co
The Eckerle Piano: Reasons Why
Chicago: Albaugh-Dover Co. Poor. 1907. First Edition. Softcover. Well we find them the way we find them. Where to start. The cover is soiled & water stained. The lower edge is rodent nibbled which goes most of the way through although the loss decreases as you go into the book. Open the cover and you see water damage to the upper left corner. Primarily the first few pages. While the rest don't show the water stain they are slightly wrinkled. The binding is however just fine. Finally some long-gone kid practiced the abc's all over the back cover and just a line or so on the front. With all that it is a very scarce catalog loaded with info. Price is as-is. ; Small 4to 9" - 11" tall; 56 pages . Albaugh-Dover Co. paperback
