Vogue Magazine, 1910-1930s. A large archive of Vogue , including forty-seven separate issues (three from 1909; fourteen from the teens; fourteen from the 1920s; eleven from the 1930s; and five from the 1940s), five bound volumes, containing six months of issues in each, representing a complete run from January 1914 through June 1916; eleven framed covers (teens to thirties); and fifty covers in an album, 1910-1940 (mostly teens to thirties). This collection documents an important and influential era in women's fashion. The many notable covers, advertisements, and articles portray the period with candid details that sometimes escape our incomplete image of the past. A notable inclusion is the 1 June 1939 issue, with a cover by Salvador Dali. In this Vogue collection, one sees the diverse looks of fashionistas from the World War I era, through the flappers, roaring twenties, the jazz age, the Depression, and into the war years in the '40s.
