Depression Era Dime Store : Kitchen, Home, and Garden, Paperback / softback Book

Depression Era Dime Store : Kitchen, Home, and Garden Paperback / softback

Paperback / softback

Description

Like peering through the plate glass window of a Woolworth's, Kresge's, or J.J.

Newberry's, this popular book reveals the wonderful array of dimestore merchandise that awaited homemakers and gardeners during our country's Depression era.

Consumers in those years needed a convenient, affordable place to purchase necessities for the home--and dimestores had it all.

Illustrated with over 200 images, many of them drawn from original catalogs and advertisements, this book is a virtual shopper's paradise of Depression era goods from the pretty to the practical: colorful dinnerware, cookware, salt and pepper shakers, cookie jars, linens, home decor, stationery, furniture, needlework, sewing notions, holiday decorations, gardening products, even supplies for the family pet.

For all those who treasure memories of their local five-and-ten-cent store, this book is a must.

Newly updated values are included for all items.
