Description

Partial inaugural year of Bo Bedre (Live Better) Danish magazine of Home Style and Design.  First published in March 1961  (missing November/December) seven magazines of the  first year (July & August in one issue).  The magazines are in the Danish language but pictures are very descriptive and informational.  There are articles on gardening, cooking, do-it-yourself projects, furniture, home style, crafts, home layouts and even houses for sale with prices and owners. What is wonderful about these magazines is the amount of advertising of furnishings that were new at the time but now are Mid Century Danish Modern. The majority of ads identify the designers and maker of the furniture, lighting and other household items, a trove of information about the not well known designers and makers.  some of the companies that often advertised – Dansk Designs, Bramin Møbler, Wegner Møbler, EGE Rya, Hornsæs-Horsens, Domus Danica, France & Son, Fog & Morup, Lyfa, George Jensen and many more.

Condition: In vintage condition. Yellowing of pages and some spines with damage but magazines complete. June issue cover is loose.

Measurements: 8 inches x 11 1/4 inches
