Bound Vintage Fashion Magazine Issues - L'OFFICIEL PARIS 1955

We are thrilled to present a collection of 50 bound volumes of international fashion magazines from the 1950s and 1960s, including Vogue, L’Officiel Paris, L’Art et la Mode, and more. Each bound volume contains multiple issues featuring breathtaking fashion photography and illustrations by renowned artists. These rare pieces offer invaluable insights for collectors and archives, serve as a rich source of inspiration for the creative industry, and are a must-have for anyone passionate about vintage fashion. Beautifully preserved within their sturdy bindings, these editions are a true highlight for any collection.

This volume contains 400 pages from L'Officiel Paris issues dated September 1955, October 1955, and December 1955, delivering a rich showcase of French Haute Couture fashion.

The volume contains a mix of black-and-white and color pages, with several wonderful illustrations scattered throughout. The ad sections from the beginning of each issue have been removed, leaving only the editorial parts, which are filled with vibrant fashion shots. The paper quality is exceptional, with many pages almost cardboard-thick, enhancing the luxurious feel of the collection.

The condition is excellent, with flat pages and brilliant colors. The December 1955 issue has page 127/128 torn out.

Please note that the issues included in our bound volumes are not necessarily complete and the pages are not necessarily bound in the correct order due to the binding process. We do our best to include any specifications in the listings, but due to the sheer volume of this collection (over 20,000 pages), it is not possible to consider every last detail.
