1947 Newspapers

We recently lifted an old vinyl flooring and underneath were many 1947 newspapers.

I have been having a look over them and there are a few things of interest that I found.

The women looked as though they loved to clean...




But then the truth came out...


The army did a test on the best outdoor clothing in the Arctic...and they realised that the Eskimos were right all along....


There was a major snow storm in England....



They were good at growing turkeys.  This one dressed at 35lbs.  The 5 year old child beside it weighs 34lbs....


Barbara Ann Scott's photo appeared many times...


This was the car to drive....


This was playing at the theatre....


You could easily buy a milker...



This was how you would carry your gun....


The women were beautiful....


and they knew how to dress.


And the men were such handsome gentlemen....they knew how to dress too!


But they all seem to have this problem....










even the children....



It was a little too much.
