1945 HATS & ACCESSORIES  

The time it takes to scan, format, and download the entire book is crazy.  I hope enough people will find it worthwhile to work on some awesome vintage projects!

If you don't want to be "cookie cutter"...making all the ordinary things that you see online...take a leap and create some of these 1940s patterns!

I would LOVE to see a completed project!

1960 Glass-Fiber Frame Bike

Bomard Industries, Inc., Grand Haven, Mich.

One manufacturer is peddling bicycles distinguished by their colorful glass-fiber frames.  Designed by an industrial designer, the new bicycle combines a streamlined effect with the protective enclosure of mechanical parts, such as gears and chains.  Accessories such as horn and light are concealed in the sweep of the frame.  The color is designed into the glass fiber.
