Film Noir Sweater Girls - 1946

Talk about drama! These 1946 sweaters are all modeled by serious gals with shadows and dim lighting...very stylish, but a bit hard to see what you were suppose to knit. But I suspect they were all starlets trying out for film noir roles as gun molls. <a href="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946.jpg"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946.jpg" width="400"></a> <a href="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-2.jpg"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-2.jpg" width="400"></a> <a href="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-3.jpg"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-3.jpg" width="400"></a> <a href="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-4.jpg"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-4.jpg" width="400"></a> <a href="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-5.jpg"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-5.jpg" width="400"></a> <a href="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-6.jpg"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-6.jpg" width="400"></a> <a href="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-7.jpg"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Jack%20Frost%20Vol%2050%201946/JackFrostVol501946-7.jpg" width="400"></a>

Buy a Sewing Machine of the Present, and not one of the Past - Get A Singer - 1898

"Singer machines are so simple that a child can understand them; they are so strong that a bungler can hardly get them out of order" As you read this substitute the words 'sewing machine' with 'computer' and consider what a technical miracle these were. Plus they "they never get the "fits" which try a woman's patience", who can say that about their computer? <a href="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Cosmopolitan%20Magazine%20Feb%201898/CosmopolitanFeb1898_0004.jpg"><img src="http://i156.photobucket.com/albums/t21/what-i-found/Cosmopolitan%20Magazine%20Feb%201898/CosmopolitanFeb1898_0004.jpg" width="400"></a> Sewing Machines of the present are very different from those of the past. Very few users of sewing-machines to-day know the technical differences; patents have expired on generic features, but " the world moves," and radical improvements have been made in sewing machines, so that the one of today shows a tremendous improvement on its predecessor. Women who have used both kinds quickly realize the difference between a cheaply made imitation of some ancient type and the modern light-running machine which is easily adjusted, does all kinds of work, and is always ready to go. The Silent Singer of to-day is the latest result of constant improvement in mechanical excellence. For practical use it compares with the old-time sewing-machines sold at Department stores much as a modern railway train surpasses a stage-coach of the last century. Singer machines are so simple that a child can understand them; they are so strong that a bungler can hardly get them out of order. Every part is made with such scrupulous care, from the best materials fitted in its place with the utmost exactness, and tested and re-tested so many times before leaving the factory, that they never get the "fits" which try a woman's patience, destroy the fruits of her labor, and consume her time in vexing attempts to coax the machine to a proper performance of duty. Singer machines are sold directly from maker to user; they are guaranteed by the maker, always ready to furnish parts and supplies in any part of the world, and not by a middleman totally unable to render this service.
