There are pages upon pages of great historical(hysterical??) information, plus the drawings of the 50's are enjoyable! Some great magazines supplied their features for this book: American Home, Family Circle, House Beautiful, Living for young Homemakers, McCalls, Parents, Woman's Day, Woman's Home Companion - many of which are still published!
Some of these basic instructions should never be forgotten!
