UK Homes & Gardens June 1959 MCM Late 1950s Lifestyle Design & Ads
$60
Very rare copy of the June 1959 edition of Homes and Gardens, the British design and lifestyle magazine. The cover is a formal portrait photo of Queen Elizabeth II who was about to go on an overseas tour but the contents are pure Mid Century Modern. This is a thick 180 page summer issue with outdoor living, seasonal party food and drinks and a feature on fridges which were a real novelty for most people in the UK in 1959. There's summer fashion, beauty, romantic fiction, MCM graphics and layouts and lots of great late Fifties adverts for home furnishings, appliances, food, cars, clothes and more.
The magazine is complete, intact and in very good vintage condition with light cover wear and age related paper toning on some inside pages. Please examine the photos carefully and contact me if you have any questions. Pick up from Kensington NSW 2033 in Sydney Eastern Suburbs.
I'm gradually downsizing and selling vintage magazines including British, American and Australian Vogues plus a variety of other fashion and design related items. I have eclectic tastes so please check out my other ads while you're here to see more unique finds. Thanks for looking.
