I just stumbled on to a few of these at a cool antique store and fell in love...does anyone else find (and read) these old 'magazines'? The one's I found were late 40's, early 50's vintage.
For those of you who've never heard of them, they're in of like a homemakers newsletter, gossip paper, recipes...all printed like a black and white newspaper.

How neat!
I have a book of clippings that one of hubbies distant family members had......it is home keeping tips clipped out of the papers from the turn of the century.....very cool. I need to sit down and organize the information in a more modern form.

Just an update....I've posted a blog with some excerpts from one of these magazines from 1947 if anyone is interested. I already learned something about poultry I didn't know. What a hoot!
