Rodman, Anne. Lady be Lovely! A Simple Practical Graphic Guide to Make You More Beautiful. First Edition. 1939. Book is in very good condition; dust jacket is in good minus condition—jacket shows large chip to the lower front cover and smaller chips to the top.
This book was published in the same year as MGM released The Women, and there is definitely a similarity in style. One imagines Norma Shearer might read it under the hairdryer as she tries to ignore the antics of the characters played by Rosalind Russell or Joan Crawford. Book lays out the basic principles of beauty. Format is straightforward and easily understandable, but the principles themselves are elegant and timeless. With frequent illustration. Very rare—no other copies currently for sale.
