This article was very interesting. I’m trying to find out what life was like in New York 1912 for a person of about 20 years of age for a novel I’m writing. Thanks!
Is there somewhere where you can still get the Lip Lickers Lip Gloss? Or a web page where I can order them? I use to have them all back in the early ‘80s! I really really loved them and would love to have them now!!!
