1938 Fashion

I came upon this Sears and Roebuck catalog ad. How wholesome and all-American, they look like they are living the dream. I guess that is what fashion is about, feeling wonderful and expressing your ideal self.

During the 80s I lived in a rented house on Moraga near 31st. The first time I started to use fireplace I checked the flu for obstructions first. When I looked up the chimney it was stuffed with wadded up newspapers and I was amazed to discover they were from 1944. Somehow there were always these interesting things happening in San Francisco. Must be something in the air!
