Miss America 1928 My how things have changed!!
This is a newspaper ad in 1928 talking about the new Miss America of that year. It is something to gaze at and see how much things have changed over the years.
My name is Jack Stanley, I have studied history for many years. This blog is about history in a more raw view, not over done. I often use original materials to bring a historic event or story to life or an interview I may have done with the person mentioned. If you cook a vegetable too long it loses much. The same can be said of many histories. They are the history of the history written before it. Over done history. THIS IS HISTORY IN THE RAW. Comments send to phonograph78@hotmail.com
