The birthplace of Herbert Hoover is at West Branch, Iowa, east of Cedar Rapids. And the museum nearby is the Hoover Library, I think. It is many years since I was there but they had a large collection of the embellished flour sacks from that WW I era. Also there was a round table which had (under glass) a magnificent round lace piece displayed. I'm sure it was bobbin lace. When I was there I was in my early experimental years of lacemaking.and was duly impressed.
