UK Womans Journal Apr 1960 Ballerina Cover MCM Fashion Lifestyle & Ads
$60
Rare copy of the April 1960 edition of British Woman's Journal magazine with a pretty cover portrait of the French ballet star Liane Daydé by the Swiss artist Ilse Voigt. It features a Mid Century lifestyle mix of new spring fashions, beauty, baking, interiors, a knitting pattern, travel, royalty, a feature on antiques and several short stories including a murder mystery by Ngaio Marsh.
The photos, layouts, illustrations, graphics and adverts all have a distinctive early 1960s MCM style and there are lots of lovely ads from the very start of the Sixties including the new 1960 Ford Zodiac car, Sunbeam Mixmaster, Bri-Nylon raincoats, Braemar knitwear, DAKS skirts, Parnall vacuum cleaners, Sanderson wallpaper & fabrics, Alkathene plastic home wares, English Rose kitchens, Nathan dining furniture, Helena Rubinstein make up, Yardley Lavender and Roberts Windsor Jaslyn soap. Two with Australian interest are P&O sea voyages to Australia for 'busy people' and Ledux clothing with Aussie model Jennifer Hocking.
The thick 140 page magazine is complete and intact with age related cover wear including small rust stains over the staples and minor paper loss on the spine. The rusted staples near the spine can be seen on the first few inside front and back pages but otherwise the contents are in very good and clean condition. This copy was sold in Australia and has Aus/NZ prices on the cover. Please examine all 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 my collections and selling 1930s to 1980s British, American and Australian magazines, fashion, photography and design books and a variety of other items. I have eclectic tastes so please check out my other ads while you're here to see more unique finds. Thanks for looking.
