1939 Vintage magazine Lots of glossy color photos
Aloha!
Currently selling my rare vintage copy of "PARADISE OF THE PACIFIC" Holiday Annual of December 1939!!!
It's in very good condition except for the cover that has the part of the spine (where the title would be) completely missing and some minor tears however the magazine holds together without problem whatsoever.
Currently listed here on eBay with just a day to go. Please have a look, lots of gorgeous glossy full page photos including nude wahine sketch, wahine guitar player, Georgia O'keefe "Petunias" print and more. Let me know if you need to see more scans.
I'm parting with this regretfully as I know this rare and gorgeous collectible will go up in value as the years go by!
Excerpt from the eBay ad:
This magazine contains many beautiful photos and lithographs reproductions suitable for framing. It includes many classic Hawaiiana full page images such as old Hawaii, both in semi-glossy color, as well as black and white photos and many vintage ads.
I have seen many of these magazines and this is a rare opportunity to own one of the most beautiful issues and a true piece of Hawaii history. I know you will absolutely love this one, so please don't miss out and bid early, you will be so happy you did! I know you don't want to have to regret it! This is the only copy I have of this particular issue and when it's gone, who knows when it will turn up again and in what shape!? Why risk it?
This is an investment that is well worth the low starting price, and will bring you hours of tremendous enjoyment as you relax and look at all these lovely images and read exclusive articles that are not to be found anywhere else! Let yourself be transported to a gone by era where sultry nights and balmy days are wrapped in the endless charm and the stunning beauty that is the magic of Old Hawaii. Part antique, part treasure, all Hawaiiana, this splendid magazine is one you will cherish and you will be proud to pass down to your children and many more generations, due to its outstanding condition, and its high quality of content and graphics. As you can well imagine it will very likely go up in value as the years go by. When you purchase it now for your personal enjoyment, know that you're investing wisely in a true collectible and an exquisite piece of heirloom that your family will treasure for many more years to come!
