Very cute. I wonder - did boys actually wear those hats with pointy spikes that look like a king's crown?!
ReplyDeleteFun illustrations! That's the oddest looking turkey I've ever seen! I don't celebrate Thanksgiving where I am, but I'll still try & take your advice & relax a bit ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving to you and your family. I'm not sure when it is. I thought it was today but my calendar says it's tomorrow. Whenever it is, hope you have a wonderful day!
I LOVE your blog! These are great! :) x
ReplyDeleteThese are so fun to look at...but I'm so glad clothing styles have changed!
ReplyDeleteLove the last picture. That is how all meals should be made!
ReplyDeleteI look just like that if you can get past the headscarf and tattered yoga pants! Have a peaceful bliss-filled holiday.

ReplyDeleteFunny funny stuff, I love these illustrations
I love vintage cookbook illustrations! Awesome post! =)
ReplyDeleteI just love the illustrations. I remember one of my friends had older parents and her mother gave her the "Ladies Handbook to Car Repairs" when she got her driver's license...it was her Mother's copy from when she learned to drive!!! We were histerical as we paged through it and it had the same illustrations.
ReplyDeleteThere's a certain dynamic quality to this style- I love the way everything seems to be done with a flourish. Thanks for sharing such a great find. Hope your holiday weekend is relaxing and filled with family.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a happy thanksgiving..and didn't have to axe your own turkey!
ReplyDeletei hope you had a lovely holiday and did the same for yourself!
ReplyDeleteThese are so neat - I love seeing drawings from this time. They have such a fun and simple quality to them! Hope you had a good holiday!
