I wonder why did they called it a book when, in fact, it was a magazine.
The magazine book was published by Whitestone Publications in 1958 in, Louisville, Kentucky, and is filled with interesting articles on how to.
I love the Christmas tree made with Q-tips in the lower-right corner.
It had many recipes, guide lines on how to host a party, and Christmas dinner suggestions.
Christmas dinner hasn't changed much since 1958.
Toward the back of the magazine book was a shopper guide, would I love to have some of these vintage toys.
My favorite Aunt had the mechanical teddy bear pouring the soda.
I use to love playing with it, I wonder what happened to it?
This advertisement caught my eye...
How innocent everyone was back in 1958. {Look at her raised hand}
This advertisement made me smile laugh out loud.
This magazine book was priced 15¢ I believe I got my moneys worth.
1)What an amazing fine!!! 2)I live in Louisville Ky 3)I work for Whitestone! (mine not a publisher but an incorporation name for a construction company) and I LOVE old magazine (always featuring some in my blog). So yours is my fav post of the day!
ReplyDeleteoops - so excited I made tons of typos. 1)Find, 2)Louisville, Ky 3)is not 4magaines. whew.
ReplyDeleteThe laugh that advertisement caused alone was worth the 15 cents, lol. Thanks for sharing that great find!
ReplyDeletethe q-tip required a green poster paper. I made one and I was so proud of it. Looking at it now, I'm sure it was tacky but it was a decoration for the house that year. Fortunately, if you store it in the attic, the q-tips fall off and the poster paper fades.
