First edition of Slim Aarons' masterpiece, a portrait of the glamour, luxury and exclusivity of the elite during the 1950s and 60s which remains without peer to this day. Folio, original blue cloth, profusely illustrated with photographs by Slim Aarons, many full-page. Fine in a near fine dust jacket. Bookplate of Joyce Allen to the front endpaper. An exceptional example, uncommon in this condition. Since publication in 1974, A Wonderful Time has served as a source of inspiration for art designers and advertising gurus. Aarons' pictures appeared on the pages of Harper's Bazaar, Life, Vanity Fair and Holiday. "Attractive people doing attractive things in attractive places" was Aarons's mantra.
