    Where did you find these books? Can you believe the prices? A real time capsule, and the designs are timeless, still pretty.

    I found this particular book at a church rummage sale, and you can also find them at estate sales, garage sales, and flea markets. Thrift stores also have vintage books but usually nothing older than the 1970's. Glad you enjoyed the photos!
