Published in 1940 by Eric Knight, the novel about a dog named Lassie...Lassie Come Home became a film in 1943 followed by six more MGM Lassie films, which later became a popular long running television series starting in the 1950's. THAT'S why I giggled when I saw the coat label "Lassie Jr". Not exactly the reaction the coat maker was looking for, I'm sure. LOL
Welcome to all! As a hobby, I collect vintage fashion magazines and enjoy sharing the collection with others. These images are still very difficult to find on the internet in abundance and as large, clear scans. I experience a lot of laughter, artistic satisfaction and insight as I muse about the content of these images. However, as the Spanish proverb goes, "Unshared joy is an unlighted candle." In that spirit, join me in giving a wink and a nod to the past as we peruse it together. Know that many friends may have contributed pictures to this collection. Thank you for brightening this site with your visit! -- AngoraSox
