Little Grey Bungalow: Vintage Advertising

Little Grey Bungalow

Monday, September 2, 2013

Happy Labor Day, American workers. From Every Week magazine, May 7, 1917.

Shay: the rural Midwest, United States; Middle-aged Middle-westerner, retired Marine and Detroiter who somehow wound up in a farm village of 1100 people. I am a Red Cross volunteer and adrenalin junkie, and retired from my job as a bioterrorism/public health planner. My hobbies are military history and needlework. I share the bungalow with the Spousal Unit, Batdog our GSD and his sidekicks, Little Man and Blitzen (who thinks he's a German shepherd), and cats Sheba and Minnie. You will find here free patterns from my collection of pre-1955 needlework magazines (sewing, knitting, tatting, crochet, embroidery, etc) as well as old recipes, vintage household hints, poetry, occasional rants, LOLCats, and any pieces of ephemera that tickle my fancy.
