'a fancy bouillabaisse of Vogue, Town & Country, Holiday, etc.', so quipped Time Magazine discussing the launch of Fleur Cowles' extravagant and innovative Flair magazine. It was the brainchild of Cowles, who wished to create a journal with 'flair'. One that covered the best of fashion, décor, travel, art, literature, humour and entertainment, and featured the words and images of the best twentieth century writers and artists. The first issue of the magazine appeared in 1950. It was published by Cowles' husband, Gardner Cowles, and his brother John, but the editorial control rested with Fleur. She insisted on the finest production values and each issue featured cut-outs, fold-outs, inserts, different paper stock and lots of colour. Art direction was by Louis-Marie Eude & then Hershel Bramson. Cowles persuaded writers such as W. H. Auden, Jean Cocteau, Simone de Beauvoir, Colette, Jean Genet, Gypsy Rose Lee, Eleanor Roosevelt, Angus Wilson, George Bernard Shaw, Tallulah Bankhead, Tennessee Williams, Jean Cocteau, Clare Boothe Luce, Beverley Nichols, and Elizabeth Bowen to provide text and artistic contributions came from the likes of Dali, George Hoyningen-Huene, Lucian Freud, Rene Gruau, Walker Evans, Saul Steinberg, Alexander Calder, Barbara Jones and Winston Churchill. There were issues dedicated to Paris, New York, Christmas, Colleges, and even one devoted to Roses, infused with the scent of the flower. All this cost money, circulation did not rise above 200,000 and each issue was losing Fleur and her husband funds. After the twelfth issue in January 1951 the magazine closed. The magazine was short-lived but it's reputation as one of the boldest and innovative periodicals of the twentieth-century lives on and it remains the gold standard for luxury magazine production. The fragile nature of the magazine with its various cut-outs and inserts means that complete sets are hard-to-find.

My dog loves it!
Style: Ball, Size: Medium (Pack of 1)
This crunch ball was a Christmas gift for my 65lbs fur baby. It’s now mid April and he still loves it. He loves running after it and chomping down on it. It is still in good shape despite all the chomping it’s gotta . I highly recommend. He goes back to this toy agin and again! Great buy.

Our first babies favorite and longest lasting ball yet and he is fixing to be 7.

Toughest ball we have found yet. Our doberman loves Chuckit! Balls especially the crunch one. He spreads all the balls and toys we have bought but these lasted the longest. The crunch and the glow in the dark are usually his pick but he has several different choices.

Great treat replacing for motivated dogs!!!
Color: Yellow
i use this ball strictly for training purposes with my Aussie who is super obsessed with balls. My dog seriously loves this ball. This has taken the place of treats. When we aren’t training the ball goes in a closet. So far it’s durable enough for our training session. (If we have a good session he is rewarded with having free access to the ball for a limited time, he enjoys a little tug so I normally hold the rope and let him have at the ball) for $10 id say it’s worth it. It’s definitely not indestructible but it is cheaper for me to replace these than buying treats every week as rewards.

Fun toy
Color: Orange
Well made. The puppies love it, BUT it is too hard for them at an early age ( 2 1/2 months. They ended up grabbing the rope. As they got 5-6 months they were fine. Make another model 1 inch smaller and half as hard Belgian Malinois & Doberman.
