The product is an original 1st edition volume 1, number 1 of Flair Magazine from February 1950. This vintage magazine was published in the United States by Gardner Cowles with editor Fleur Cowles. The magazine is an illustrated publication in English, focusing on art, fashion, literature, and society.
Notable contributors to this first edition include: Lucian Freud, Jean Cocteau, W. Also, articles on the Paris house of the Duke & Duchess of Windsor, Philip Johnson's Glass House. Illustrations by Rene Gruau (cover with cut out and gold wing), ads for Hattie Carnegie, Schiaparelli, etc.
It is a collector's edition, limited edition, and considered a vintage magazine treasure. This rare piece would be a valuable addition to any collection of vintage paperbacks or magazines from the 1950s! I ALMOST want to keep this for my own colle tion. Please see pictures for wear.
The Magazine is in a plastic sleeve and has been kept in impeccable condition for the last 75 years. Most of the wear is on the spine of the magazine.
