I have a feeling I would love getting lost sifting through them. <BR/><BR/>Kind of ironic that I'm learning about something "before the advent of TV or computers" via a computer. And that I'm able to find them so easily and purchase them via that same computer.<BR/><BR/>Will your magazines become part of your collage Mary Kleinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09935612848281400732noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8853506802168346227.post-15766252457338962912007-10-24T15:12:00.000-05:002007-10-24T15:12:00.000-05:00I just bought a few magazines called The Instructo...I just bought a few magazines called The Instructor - for teachers. They are all from the late 30s and are full of rainy day projects, patterns to contruct or sew or build something.... Before the advent of TV or computers.

It's up now near my easel spinning gently.<BR/><BR/>I'm glad you wrote about the patterns. I'd have never thought of that - being a child of the 60's. Now I'll know what to look for next on eBay.

It was full of these, many types, and so many other wonderful cheap toys. I collected them all.<BR/><BR/>I also have old books and magazines for children - all from the 20s and 30s - which tell you how to make your own, with patterns.<BR/><BR/>EvaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
