Have you ever heard of Lydia Pinkham's Vegetable compound? It was one of the first "medicines" marketed just for women. There is a very interesting history of the company here. They were a very prolific company publishing quite a few booklets on a variety of subjects.
This one is a cooking booklet. Published around 1929.
The testimonials are quite something with their dramatic wording. But as usual for cookbooks of this era, you can spot several very cute aprons!
"Wholesome Candies" ?!?
This one is on Sewing. Love the cover! It is also the same time frame 1928.
Directions for an apron, which I made and posted about here.
A simple negligee......
a Nightgown.....
I love this illustration of a "modern working girl"!
