SCHIAPARELLI, Elsa SHOCKING LIFE
1954 SCHIAPARELLI, Elsa. SHOCKING LIFE. Illustrated. NY: E.P. Dutton, 1954. 8vo., black cloth in dust jacket. First Edition. Elsa Schiaparelli was considered one of the top desginers in her day, with "Schiaparelli Shocking" being one of her slogans; hence, the title of this book- her autobiography. Schiaparelli was born in Rome but eventually ended up in Paris designing her own fashion line- but apparently without much success. In 1928 the French "Vogue" magazine displayed one of her black & white sweaters with a "fool-the-eye" bow at the neck. American author Anita Loos, who wrote "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" (which was later made into the famous movie starring Marilyn Monroe) purchased one of the now famous Schiaparelli sweaters which, in turn, created the new buzz about this up- and-coming desginer and department stores began to stock her clothing; thui the sale that launched her career. Signed presentation from Schiaparelli to American author Anita Loos, signed as "Schiap." With the red Loos estate stamp on the same page. I am unable to make out all of the words in the presentation but it says: "To Anita, my first courageous [illegible word] with [another illegible word] & friendship, Schiap." A truly wonderful association copy! Schiaparelli had quite a reputation including: said to be the first woman to use synthetic fabrics in her designs; first to use the zipper (which was invented in 1936); and the first person to establish a "boutique" as a means to sell ready-to-wear designer clothing to the general public. Also with this book is an original "Schiaparelli Shocking" promotional card, which Loos used as a bookplate. Near fine (bright); moderate edgewear (small chips & creases) d/j. One of the best association copies to be had relating to this well- known designer!

GARFIELD, James A. Autograph Letter Signed
1880 GARFIELD, James A. Autograph Letter Signed. Twentieth President of the United States of America. One page, dated Washington, DC, February 12, 1880- thirteen months before he took the oath of office for U.S. president. Garfield's response to a letter from a little girl: "Dear Little Miss- In answer to your nicely written letter, which should induce any one to comply with a little girl's request- I subscribe myself, Very Truly yours, J.A. Garfield." Garfield, who was president for only four months, died in Elberon, NJ (now a section of Long Branch) on Sept. 19, 1881 after being shot twice by Charles A. Guiteau, a disappointed office seeker. After being shot on July 2, Garfield lingered for more than ten weeks between life and death. On Sept. 6 he was taken by train to Elberon where a special railroad track was laid the previous night to a cottage by the cool breezes of the Atlantic Ocean. A bullet lodged near his spine eventually caused his death by blood poisoning. Garfield was one of many presidents to worship at St. James Chapel, an Episcopal Church still existing on Ocean Avenue in the Elberon section. The flag that draped Garfield's casket is now an artifact in the church and a small shed erected from the railroad ties used to build the special railroad track to the cottage still exists on the church site. Ironically, New Jersey was one of the few states Garfield did not win during his election. Mounted with a reproduced color portrait of Garfield in a 13-inch by 16-inch mat and nicely displayed in a gilt wooden frame.
