A trade catalogue of raincoats produced by Maurel Freres & Cie in 1936. The line was called "Rivolia", presumably after their premises location on the Rue de Rivoli, Paris. The catalogue includes colourful drawings of women's and men's coats accompanied by fabric swatches in Crêpe Marocain, tweed, velvet corduroy, cotton, wool, leather, cashmere, gabardine, etc. Complete; loosely inserted is a price list, a 12 page small catalogue for the "Standard" ready-to-wear line also with swatches, and a pamphlet with swatches of '3 Modèles de Grande Vente'. A wonderful survival.
