BARBIER, Georges, (1882-1932)

Falbalas et Fanfreluches. Almanach des modes presentes, passées et futures. Paris: Meynial, éditeur, 1922-1926.

A fine set of these beautifully illustrated almanacs with a total of 60 colour plates in the original colour-printed wrappers. The issue for 1923 features the essay 'Modes' by Colette; the remaining essays are by the Comtesse de Noailles, Cécile Sorel, Gérard d'Houville and the Baronne de Brimont. The illustrations brilliantly depict a catalogue of liaisons with sly humour and mildly erotic tone. Bobins IV, 1415; Colas 1026.



5 volumes, octavo (255 x 169mm). Title of each almanac with colour vignette, each with 12 plates by George Barbier, all finely coloured in pochoir; historiated woodcut headpiece to each essay, calendar for each year printed in a different colour border (small glue spots to turn-ins of 1922 wrapper which is a little toned and very lightly spotted). Loose as issued in original publisher's printed wrappers, each with pochoir colour designs by Barbier on upper cover (in modern perspex slipcase).
