Needlecraft Magazine. May, 1922.
Needlecraft is a monthly magazine of needlework, sewing and home crafts published by the Needlecraft Publishing Company of Augusta, Maine, in May 1922, for women who sewed and made their own clothing and household linens. Its pages mix patterns for undergarments and dresses with mail-order advertisements for dress forms, lamps, handbags and nursing courses. A designer could take its tight grid of small line drawings, flat black-and-white advertising typography and fashion-plate silhouettes as models for vintage print layout and period fashion detail.
