1965réf. 221891965. Chinese American Fashion & Beauty Chinese American beauty pageant "Miss China Town USA" held in San Francisco photo archive 1965. Archive of 12 silver gelatin photographs. Each measure 4" x 6" and comes in the original developer's envelope "Schaefer's Camera Shop -- 137 Kearny Street." This striking archive captures a rare and vibrant moment in Chinese American cultural expression during the post Chinese Exclusion Act era with all images centered on young Chinese American women participating in a public pageant event-likely held in Chinatown or Union Square as suggested by background buildings and signage such as the visible Alitalia storefront. Participants wear qipao dresses and Western coats adorned with pageant sashes identifying their affiliations. Their elaborate bouffant hairstyles upright posture and elegant bearing assert a hybridized ideal of beauty that both incorporates and subtly defies dominant mid-century Western standards-privileging Chinese dress language and poise at a time when Asian Americans were largely excluded from national representations of glamour. The women are shown seated before crowds posing for press photos and participating in ceremonial or interview portions of the event. The audience includes a racially diverse set of onlookers who line the streets and engage with the proceedings suggesting both the public scale of the event and its significance beyond the Chinese American community alone. Several city officials and professional photographers also appear emphasizing the civic prominence of the occasion. While one photo is duplicated the remaining eleven are unique. These images offer a vivid glimpse into the aesthetics aspirations and public pride of Chinese American womanhood at a time when race and representation were under increasing renegotiation. Light edge wear overall very good condition. A rare visual record of Chinese American pageantry and public assertion of cultural identity in defiance of mainstream erasure during the civil rights era. unknown

1971réf. 208851971. Photo archive of African American fashion models and a regional beauty pageant winner 1960s-1970s documents Black women's participation in commercial modeling and organized pageantry during a period of changing representation in American media. The images center on professional studio photography and promotional portraiture recording how Black women were presented within fashion and beauty industries that had long limited their inclusion. The archive includes a press photograph of Fern Tresvan crowned Miss Black Colorado and advanced to national competition at Madison Square Garden alongside a sustained series of modeling images of Carol King a Los Angeles based model whose career intersected with music and entertainment industries. Seven black and white silver gelatin photographs most measuring approximately 8 x 10 inches with one elongated print measuring about 5 x 10 inches. Six studio photographs depict Carol King across multiple shoots in Los Angeles attributed to Models International and Greg Mendes studios showing variations in hairstyle dress and pose over roughly a decade. Early images show King in a poolside setting with short hair while later photographs present her in a range of late 1960s and early 1970s fashions including a belted one piece swimsuit with heels a sleeveless dress posed against a leopard patterned textile a mini dress and a long sleeve floral gown. The remaining photograph is a 1971 press image of Tresvan documenting her title as Miss Black Colorado and participation in national pageant competition. Produced during the decades surrounding the Civil Rights Movement the archive situates Black women within expanding but still contested spaces of visual culture fashion and public recognition. The combination of studio modeling and pageant imagery reflects parallel avenues through which African American women gained visibility in print media and public events supporting research into race gender and representation in mid twentieth century American culture. Minor edge wear; prints remain clean and well preserved; overall very good condition. unknown
