mixed-media (12. 792)

Via fellow internet peripatetic Messy Nessy Chic (with some more interesting ephemera in this collection), we are directed towards this fascinating Edwardian era scrapbook lovingly curated by a young girl in New York City—circa 1902 to 1906. Filled with magazine clippings, theatre programmes and postcards, the montage includes an advertisement for Triscuit crackers—the electric biscuit (see previously) and the source link includes some genealogical research into the possible origin of this incredible social document (the primordial Pinterest board, see also)—purchased for a whole dollar at a used book store. Much more at the links above.
