Attempted to say "merci beaucoup" and accidentally complimented someone's physique? Been overlooked at the boulangerie due to your adherence to the bizarre foreign custom of waiting in line? Well, you're not alone. The internationally bestselling author of A Year in the Merde and In the Merde for Love has been there too, and he is here to help.

Hardcover. Zustand: Near Fine. Very Good+ dj. First Edition. (price-clipped) [very slight bumping at several corners, no other significant wear to book; the jacket shows a bit of wear at the upper extremities, light surface rubbing (mostly to rear panel), and has a 1/2" tear and associated minor creasing at the bottom front flapfold]. (B&W photographs) The photographic history of one of the most successful advertising campaigns of all time, which consisted of a series of ravishing photos of some of the world's most famous and elegant women -- among them Lauren Bacall, Joan Crawford, Judy Garland, Marlene Dietrich, Barbara Stanwyck, Claudette Colbert, Bette Davis, Barbra Streisand, Lillian Hellman, Liza Minnelli, Helen Hayes and a couple of dozen more, each swathed in Blackgama mink coats or wraps -- a campaign unimaginable today, for several reasons. The earlier photographs in the series, from 1968-1972, were taken by Richard Avedon; Bill King took over the chores in 1972. In his text, Peter Rogers (who implemented the campaign as assistant to its designer, Jane Trahey) tells the behind-the-scenes stories of the various photo shoots, focusing on "the sometimes scandalous, sometimes serene behavior of our most admired women." (There was one man involved as well, legendary dancer Rudolf Nureyev, who was photographed together with Martha Graham and Dame Margot Fonteyn. However, on the page of the book where the photo of the trio was supposed to appear is this explanatory note: "For unknown reasons, Mr. Nureyev refused permission to reproduce the photograph." Bitch!) The hardcover issue of this book is much more uncommon than the paperback. Illustrated by (dj design) Barry Littmann (illustrator).…
