    Description

    This is two original 8x11" magazine pages showing the controversial 1960's magazine ad campaign for the "Story of O dress". The dress was created by Betsey Johnson and was one of the first promoted offerings of the new Paraphernalia fashion chain at that time. The ad on the left is the original one. The one on the right is the revised one that was used later. I don't remember what magazine these were from or the exact year, but it was around 1966. The last photo shows the reverse sides of the two pages. Betsey Johnson's memoir published in 2020 mentions the dress
    I am the original owner of these. Their condition is fair, with a torn corner, some creasing and wrinkling, some spots. No mildew, no odors, nothing major; they look good, but not new.
    If I receive payment before noon Eastern time, I can usually ship the same business day; otherwise I ship the following business day.
    If you have specific concerns about the condition, please ask before bidding and I'll be happy to help.
