The Joy of Parenting: Toddlers to Teenagers from the Classic Magazine Era (Prion Postcard Books)

In the post-war years, shortly before television finally took over our lives forever, the magazine world was enjoying its finest hour. Unlike the magazines of today, classic titles like The Saturday Evening Post aimed to entertain and appeal to the whole family. In particular, they relished exposing the perverse joys and frustrations of raising children and all it entails: sleepless nights, troubled fathers, worried mothers, screaming tots, devious children, and sulky adolescents, making this collection of magazine cover art the perfect gift for stressed-out parents everywhere. This collection has 31 classic pull-out postcard images selected from the Advertising Archives, the largest and most comprehensive publishing and advertising image library in Europe.
