  Family Circle Magazine 6 Issues 1937

Soft Cover, 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall, Very Good/Wraps, Very Good, Issues include: October 22, October 29, November 5, December 10, December 24, and December 31It's interesting to see the evolution of this supermarket favorite. Today it's aimed squarely at women, but in 1937 things were different. First of all, there was less to read, as the magazine was just 24 pages, incuding the back cover. But the really interesting difference was the mix of women's fiction, beauty , fashion and recipes with articles of interest to both men AND women -- notably, a most interesting piece on voo-doo. At times the articles even seem geared just to men -- for example,. a fascinating story about the man whose job it was to get Madison Square Garden ready for any kind of event from hockey, to rodeos, to boxing matches and basketball games.Every issue offers info on the latest movies with commentary. Other stories of note include a piece about a women who created a business out of her belief that America had no telephone manners by offering training to major coporations; an odd one about an old vauedvillian who made a living posing as the world's worst waiter in restaurants around New York and a great piece about actress Margaret Tallichet and why she didn't get the role of Scarlett O'Hara. Magazines are all nice and clean with just a few edgetears. Tightly bound.

ARTHUR, T.S. (EDITOR)  Arthur's Illustrated Home Magazine (Two Issues Feb. 1875, May 1875)
Philadelphia, Timothy Shay Arthur, 1875. Soft Cover, Good/, Two very old American monthly magazines surprisingly intact after 134 years! We were so pleased to get them, as this is one magazine we had never before seen until these two issues came along. The magazine was launched in 1852 by Timothy Shay Arthur of Philadelphia who remained its editor and publisher until his death in 1885. After that it stayed around a few years before slipping away into the annals of time. The focus was women and the things that interested them -- fashions, children, cooking, literature, poetry, music and history. Both issues open with wonderful engravings of the latest fashions and both have a column on mothering. The one in February is especially good, as it's dubbed "Tired Mothers!" February's issue brings articles on Pompeii, Trojan's column, Palermo and the Cave of Santa Rosalia, soup making, beautifying one's home, and the abuse of postal cards. May covers South Wales, gardening, Boston brown bread, whitewash, recreation, and the Women's Medical College of Pennsylvania, among many other things. The magazines measure 7"x10" and are clean and tightly bound. As always with this type of cover which was made to hang over the pages, the edges are tattered, but have been pressed flat to minimize further damage.
