1897 Sears Roebuck & Co. Catalogue
from Skyhorse Publishing
Price: $12.21

Customer Review:

The Sears and Roebuck catalog has been a huge help in writing my historical romance set in the 1890s. There are saddles, surreys, and patent medicines. This visual aid has made it so much easier for me to give an accurate depiction of the times.

Twentieth-Century Design (Oxford History of Art)
from Oxford University Press, USA
Price: $18.45

Customer Review:

Since Hesketts "Industrial Design" from 1990, this is the best comprehensive introduction to the "new" Design History view on the parallel histories of design developments in this century.

It takes a relatively non-heroic attitude towards celebrated designers and design... more info

Antique Advertising Postcards in Full Color: 24 Ready-to-Mail Postcards from the Bella C. Landauer Collection (Card Books)
from Dover Publications
Price: $6.95

Customer Review:

The artwork is unique. The only thing to bother me was the cards had to be torn out. I knew this when I purchased them, but didn't think it'd make that big of a difference to me. It does.

Striking Images: Vintage Matchbook Cover Art
from Chronicle Books
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:

I think all the books I've seen on this subject merit high praise, but Striking Images stands out for its layout and focus on the artwork itself. The juxtaposed covers allow for many great samples to be consumed by the eyes at once, while other blown up images assume a Pop Art painting quality. So... more info

Meet Mr. Product: The Art of the Advertising Character
from Chronicle Books
Price: $11.53

Customer Review:

I have found this collection of advertising characters indispensable as reference. A brief history of the subject matter is included and reads well. The lack of an index is perplexing, and given the occupations of its authors the cover design should have been a little more proficient. Otherwise it... more info

Great American Billboards: 100 Years of History by the Side of the Road
from Ten Speed Press
Price: $13.57

Customer Review:

The first thing that came mind when I looked through this book was why there were so many black and white photos. The first color billboard photo is from 1954 for Budweiser on page 136. The previous pages have some color but they are illusrations. Most of the contents seem to be mono photos which... more info

French Fashion Illustrations of the Twenties: 634 Cuts from La Vie Parisienne (Dover Pictorial Archive Series)
from Dover Publications
Price: $9.31

Customer Review:

As a reference for fashion history, this book is very nice. However, the fasions that are included bear only a faint resemblance to what we in the US think of 1920s fashion. Where we think of Flapper Era fashions as characterized by straight lines, dropped waists, and cloche hats, the fashions in... more info
