1950's reference
A great book for reference and inspiration is 'The 1950s Scrapbook' by Robert Opie.
Over 1,000 products and images from the 50s providing a goldmine of information.
Other decades from the Victorian era upwards are available and I got mine from Amazon.
Agree....this is a really useful and beautiful series of books. I have had 30's - 60's for some years now. Far too tall for any of my bookcases but well worth finding a spot for.

p.s. love the way your brogues turned out ... thanks for sharing and good luck with the procrastination
