Everyday Life


Both of these images are from the 1926 Ladies Home Journal I got at the flea market last week.  I love the fine details in these images of everyday life.

Taking Care of the House


These two images are from the same booklet as the previous post called Neighborly Advice from the early 20's.  Unfortunately between the ageing of the booklet and the image size they are not as clear as I would like.  Eventually I will have to investigate a better photo imaging program that would emphasize/darken the lines that are lightened without having to add back in each pixel individually.  The program I am working with is 10 years old but it is so easy to use.
