Bereik en inhoud
This collection brings together a variety of small, ephemeral publications intended to appeal to wives, mothers, and other domestic workers. The bulk are from the first half of the 20th century, consisting of advertisements for domestic goods with helpful tips for housekeeping, a household account book (unused), and booklets outlining medicinal uses for household items such as yeast. One brochure offers information about converting sewing patterns, as part of Canada’s transition to metric measurements, 1970-1980. A leaflet originally included in a Toronto newsmagazine ca. 1930s-1940s features a knitting pattern for an infant's coat and bonnet.
