Live Auction

11" (28 cm.) x 9". The 2" thick hardbound, leather-covered 1065-page book is a register of American debutantes of 1945, each having a devoted page with photograph and biographical information, and reference to their debut ball. Notable are the number of debutantes whose debut reference is "cancelled due to war", including that of Miss Shirley Jane Temple of Brentwood Park, page 104, who is cited as a member of Assistance League of Hollywood, Flower Guild, Nightingales, Silverspoons, Bel-Air Country Club and Bel-Air Bay Club. The cover has gold lettering "1945 Shirley Temple The Debutante Register". Some scuffs and rubs on leather cover, otherwise excellent. 1945.
