My daughter is trying to gather some images from google on women in 1920s era
advertising. Every time she clicks on an image, a full-page ads-by-google

Whether that's so varies greatly from library to library, but even if
true in your area, the type of thing Ann is talking about would have
been purchased long ago. That Time-Life Decades series is more than

An acquaintance is looking for a pattern for men's jodhpurs --
specifically the exaggerated military style of the early 20th century.
I would have thought this would be fairly easy to find, but I'm not

I used to have 2 pair of the old fashioned Jodhpurs with the wide thighs. One
was navy wool broad cloth, the other brown corduroy. Both had button flies and
brown leather patches on the inner thigh that stopped a little below the knee
