After Andy Warhol (American, 1928-1987). Manufactured by the Campbell Soup Company, United States. Screenprinted cellulose and cotton paper dress titled "The Souper Dress" with Warhol's iconic Campbell's soup can, ca. 1969. The dress is labeled along a tag on the inner lining "The Souper Dress/ no cleaning - no washing - It's Carefree/ Fire Resistant Unless Washed or Cleaned."Provenance: Private Minnesota Collection.Lot Essay:The trend of disposable paper dresses emerged in the 1960s. They often served as vehicles for advertisements and promotions and were made of materials such as Kaycel and Dura-Weave. While they initially operated on the fringes of fashion, the novelty was quickly adopted by high-fashion designers. Some paper dresses were even designed for themed balls, events, and boutiques.The "Souper Dress" paper dresses were designed as an advertising campaign as well as art. One advertisement for the dresses encouraged consumers to purchase two cans of Campbell's soup, remove the paper labels, and mail them in along with $1.00 to receive one of these iconic dresses. While not directly designed by Pop artist Andy Warhol, the Campbell's Soup Company tapped into the public knowledge of the artist's soup can works to promote their own product.Height: 44 in x width: 29 in.

DICKENS (CHARLES)The Posthumous Papers of the Pickwick Club, FIRST EDITION IN BOOK FORM, VERY EARLY ISSUE, 43 etched plates (including frontispiece and additional title) by R. Seymour, R.W. Buss and 'Phiz', with half-title and Directions to the Binder leaf, plates with the usual foxing, mostly in margins but heavy and affecting image in some cases, modern red calf gilt, spine with decorative tooling and lettering in gilt, 8vo (212 x 127mm.), Chapman & Hall, 1837Footnotes:AN EXCEPTIONAL COPY OF 'PICKWICK' IN BOOK FORM: WITH ALL THE EARLY ISSUE TEXT POINTS, ALL THE KEY PLATES IN THE FIRST STATE, AND ONE OF 'THE RAREST OF ALL PICKWICK PLATES'.Text:Rather remarkably, this copy has every first issue point noted by Hatton & Cleaver, with the exception of the impossibly rare early page variant ('only twice has it come under writer's notice', Hatton & Cleaver, p.56), being page 261 with the signature mark N2 rather than the correct X2 as in our copy. Plates:The present copy has the vast majority of the plates in the first state recorded by either Johannsen, Miller & Strange or Hatton & Cleaver (or all three), including the Seymour plates, and also has the two Buss plates. A few of the plates are Hatton & Cleaver's 'second plate', but according to Johannsen at least two of these are not genuine second plates but simply have the page number burnished out.Copies with the first plate ('Mr. Pickwick addressing the Club') in the first state are particularly scarce, John F. Dexter suggesting that of the first issue of 400 copies of part 1, 'I very much doubt whether more than 50 impressions in first state were obtained from the first set of steels' (Johannsen, p.2). Also present here is the extremely scarce Plate 14, one of two incorrectly paginated (as 169): 'In point of rarity, however, none exceed the two plates as originally etched for Part 6. To quote again the words of J.F. Dexter, 'they are the greatest rarity known to me in this book'' (Hatton & Cleaver, p.22). Plate 15 has the correct page number (154).List of plates with Johannsen and Hatton & Cleaver references:1. Mr Pickwick Addresses the Club: Plate A, First state, signature faint but visible.2. The Pugnacious Cabman: Plate A, First state, signature legible. 3. The Sagacious Dog: Plate A, the gun with hammer and trigger and no break in the barrel. Johannsen, Miller & Strange and J. Christian Bay all disagree with Hatton & Cleaver's assertion that the first state has the break in the gun.4. Dr. Slammer's Defiance of Jingle: Plate A, First state.5-7: All Plate A, First state.8-9: The two Buss plates.10.

The Unexpected Breaking-Up of the Seminary for Young Ladies: Plate A (correctly paginated 169), First state.16-21. All Plate A.22. Christmas Eve at M. Wardle's: Plate A, First plate.23.
