1/4 Cloth. Zustand: Near Fine. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good+. First Edition; First Printing. First edition/first printing in Near Fine condition with bumped upper rear and lower front corners in Very Good+ dust-jacket with light edgewear and chipping; In Skin Tight, Christopher Byron tells the story of Guess, one of the world's most iconic fashion brands, and its founder, Victor Jordache. Starting out as a small couture house in the early 1960s, Guess grew into a global powerhouse, thanks in part to Jordache's shrewd business tactics and his genius for creating stylish, affordable clothing. But as the company became more successful, Jordache became a ruthless ruler, ruthlessly cutting costs and exploiting his employees. By the 1990s, Guess was in trouble, and Jordache was facing serious financial and legal challenges. In the end, however, the company was saved by a new generation of designers led by Tom Ford, who brought Guess back to prominence and restored Jordache's reputation. Skin Tight is the story of one of the most dramatic corporate collapses in recent history, and of the fashion industry's powerful and often mysterious players.; 8vo; 384 pages.

Erstausgabe
First edition, sole impression, with the scarce dust jacket, of this notorious roman à clef jointly authored by Robert Byron and Christopher Sykes while they resided in Persia. The pseudonym Richard Waughburton jokily amalgamates the names of the travel writers Richard Halliburton and Alec and Evelyn Waugh. "Innocence and Design is a 'novel' barely disguising its real identity as both a travel book - it includes maps of Persia called 'Media' - and a collection of architectural and topographical essays. The hero is Sir Constantine Bruce, an eccentric Scot, who journeys to the Middle East in search of the Moslem principles of 'chromatic architecture' - he plans to re-do Riggs, his Scottish estate, in color, but with greater subtlety than we might imagine, for he hopes to 'employ color only so as to accentuate the general form, instead of swamping it in theatricality'. Comedy arises from the conflict between Sir Constantine's innocence, architectural, aesthetic, and political, and mid-Eastern intrigue: he constantly blunders into plots hatched by the Foreign Office and Military Intelligence, plots reflecting the struggle between British and Russian interests in Persia" (Fussell, p. 94). Paul Fussell, Abroad: British Literary Traveling Between the Wars, 1982. Octavo. Original green frond-grain cloth, spine lettered in gilt, blind ornamental panel on sides. With dust jacket. Title vignette and illustrations throughout by Sykes, 2 maps of Persia. Cloth bright, lean to spine, rubbing at extremities, offsetting at endpapers, contents largely fresh. A very good copy indeed, in the scarce dust jacket, unclipped, slightly rubbed, spine panel toned with closed tears at folds, ends and tips chipped, couple of marks, two contemporary newspaper cuttings concerning Robert Byron mounted on verso.

Erstausgabe
Dust jacket and text illustrations by Sykes, text maps. First edition. 8vo., a good copy in original dark green cloth, spine lettered in gilt, dust jacket. London, Macmillan & Co. Ltd. A really lovely copy, with a touch of darkening to the spine of the jacket, and a contemporary gift inscription on the front free endpaper. The pseudonym ?Waughburton? is an amalgam of the American writer Richard Halliburton whose account of a trip round the world, ?'The Royal Road to Romance?, had been one of the hits of 1925, and the Waughs Alec and Evelyn.Paul Fussell in ?Abroad? writes: ?Innocence and Design is a 'novel' barely disguising its real identity as both a travel book - it includes maps of Persia, called 'Media' - and a collection of architectural and topographical essays. The hero is Sir Constantine Bruce, an eccentric Scot, who journeys to the Middle East in search of the Moslem principles of 'chromatic architecture' - he plans to re-do Riggs, his Scottish estate, in color, but with greater subtlety than we might imagine, for he hopes to 'employ color only so as to accentuate the general form, instead of swamping it with theatricality'. Comedy arises from the conflict between Sir Constantine's innocence, architectural, aesthetic, and political, and mid-Eastern intrigue: he constantly blunders into plots hatched by the Foreign Office and Military Intelligence, plots reflecting the struggle between British and Russian interersts in Persia.Sykes and Byron drafted the book while actually there, 'sitting amid saddlebags in the courtyards of caravanserais', and we can infer the division of work: Sykes contrived the horseplay narrative, while Byron contributed the inset essays - overwritten, most of them, on Persian national character, colored architecture, Islamic building, and the sad state of Persian thought and feeling under the dictatorship of Byron's bete noire, Reza Shah. The alternation of narrative and exposition here characterizes most travel books generically, and can be seen to resemble the essential mechanism of conversation seriously pursued, which, as Waugh once perceived, consists of narrative alternating with 'comment'?.

Manuskript / Papierantiquität
2pp., 12mo. Very good on blue paper, with letterhead printed in red. He begins: 'I must write to tell you how very much indeed I enjoyed the course at Cambridge and particularly your lectures. They electrified & stimulated my mind on a great many subjects of my previous study, introduced several quite new ones (including all the African stuff), and filled some large lacunae in my own sphere especially with regard to Georgia & Kurdistan.' He hopes to be able to put what he has learnt 'to some practical use', but before he does he also hopes to be 'at Cambridge again in which case I will certainly take you at your word & spend a night with you.' Driberg lectured in Anthropology at Cambridge between 1934 and 1942.
