[Rarebooks] FS: Scarce NEW YORK FASHION BAZAR, 1884-85, with foldout color fashion plates

[Charles Agvent]

THE NEW YORK FASHION BAZAR
George Munro New York 1884-1885 First Edition.  Folio (8-1/2" x 12") 
bound in contemporary half black leather with covers detached but 
present.  This volume collects ten issues from August 1884 (Volume V, 
#58) to May 1885 (Volume VI, #67) with the color cover for the October 
issue used as a general title page.  No other color covers are present 
but all 10 foldout color fashion plates (two with minor defects) are 
present as well as numerous black-and-white engravings.  A rather scarce 
and attractive fashion publication on the order of HARPER'S BAZAR but 
differing in its smaller format and use of color.  Not in Lomazow. 
Small dampstain to upper margin but with little detriment to contents. 
Covers detached but contents quite nice.    $500.00
