Les Maisons Quaglino, Londres - cover from descriptive phamplet printed by the Curwen Press.
Quaglino's is, of course, still with us in St James's, London - as an upmarket restaurant and bar. The company has its origins in 1929 when founded by Giovanni Quaglino and over the next few years it became highly fashionable - with a clientele list that included HM Quuen Elizabeth in the 1950s, thee time when this charming little booklet describing the various enterprises run by the company was produced. Printed at the Curwen Press it shows the attention to detail one would expect from them at this time.
