Carter's Mid 20th Century - Collectables .. Design .. Decor

This book is about many of the mid-20th century products that have become, or are likely to become, collectable in Australia
One reason for today’s considerable interest in this period is because of the special nature of many of the products’ designs, summarised as ‘fifties and sixties modern’, covered extensively in this book
The book has a broad coverage, but with an Australian focus
It is written for collectors who are able to spend as little or as much as they wish for mid-20th century collectables
It is also written for the décor conscious, because it has a design and décor theme throughout, showing the uses to which collectables may be put within different room settings
The book provides structure to the complexity of mid-20th century collecting, and provides an overview of the main features of the period’s products
Also, and primarily, the book should be enjoyed by everyone

This new book covers the wise range of printed collectable items grouped under the umbrella of ephemera, from football and swap cards to all types of tickets, menus and programs, and as such is really a social history of Australia
Some of the 950 colour pictures will ring nostalgic bells, others will not be so familiar, but all will give the reader an enjoyable trip back in time
