Excerpt from A Book About Fans: The History of Fans and Fan-Painting The loan exhibition held at South Kensington in 1870 gave a great impulse to the collection and decoration of fans; and since that time many other exhibitions, although less important, have allowed amateurs to admire and to draw instruction from specimens showing the marvel lous skill of expert workmen in this charming art. One of these opportunities was afforded by the New York Society of Decorative Art, which organized a loan collection in the spring of 1882, in order to call attention to the possibilities of fan decoration and mounting, and since that time the Society has continued to encourage Ameri can decorators to rival the delightful work of foreign artists. An interesting exhibition was also held by the Grolier Club in 1891. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This timeline of the evolution of hand fans provides a look at the following: How the most ordinary found objects evolved into highly sophisticated and ornamented ones, becoming symbols of authority and privilege, imbued with ceremonial - and for some, even mystical significance. How artifacts such as carvings, pottery, murals and paintings bear witness to the early use of fans where the written record is scant or non-existent. How the early arts of sericulture and paper making figured prominently in the development of the fan. How other arts, esp. the carving of ivory, mother-of-pearl and tortoiseshell, as well as the treatment of animal skins, developed over many centuries in widespread geographic areas, would find full expression in the beautiful fans of the 18th and 19th centuries. How the powerful guilds of Europe that arose during the Middle Ages eventually affected all phases of fan production till the end of the 18thC. How 15thC Western Exploration re-started trade with the Far East & brought new fan types to Europe. How first Chinoiserie and later Japonisme influenced Western art, including fans. How fans in Europe went from being expensive novelties used to show off wealth and prestige to becoming common accessories available to the middle classes. How technological developments changed social interactions and the uses of the fan. How the gradual development of different forms of printing led to the mass production of printed fans. How every important movement/period in Western art played a role in fan decoration. How, inevitably, "fans followed fashion" in style, size, materials and subject matter. How and where the fan, one of the oldest utilitarian/ceremonial objects invented by man, is still in use and vitally important in disparate cultures and geographic areas. How and why fan use declined rapidly in the West and how interest in fans is being kept alive in areas where fan use is no longer common. This 142-page book begins with a useful Glossary of Fan Types, illustrated with 32 photographs. The text has another 200+ photographs representing fans from the past two centuries and concludes with a Glossary of fan-related terms and an extensive Bibliography.

The fan magazine has often been viewed simply as a publicity tool, a fluffy exercise in self-promotion by the film industry. But as an arbiter of good and bad taste, as a source of knowledge, and as a gateway to the fabled land of Hollywood and its stars, the American fan magazine represents a fascinating and indispensable chapter in journalism and popular culture. Anthony Slide's Inside the Hollywood Fan Magazine provides the definitive history of this artifact. It charts the development of the fan magazine from the golden years when Motion Picture Story Magazine and Photoplay first appeared in 1911 to its decline into provocative headlines and titillation in the 1960s and afterward. Slide discusses how the fan magazines dealt with gossip and innuendo, and how they handled nationwide issues such as Hollywood scandals of the 1920s, World War II, the blacklist, and the death of President Kennedy. Fan magazines thrived in the twentieth century, and they presented the history of an industry in a unique, sometimes accurate, and always entertaining style. This major cultural history includes a new interview with 1970s media personality Rona Barrett, as well as original commentary from a dozen editors and writers. Also included is a chapter on contributions to the fan magazines from well-known writers such as Theodore Dreiser and e. e. cummings. The book is enhanced by an appendix documenting some 268 American fan magazines and includes detailed publication histories.
