Hi Sew Retro-ers,
I've posted some scans on my blog from a 1949 Australian Home Journal. I collect these magazines and have quite a number, and luckily most have their original sewing patterns included.
I find them really useful for dating vintage clothing and patterns and for ideas about the styles that were popular at certain points, so feel free to check them out (but probably my favourite things about these magazines are the ads and the social commentary they provide). I have more scans on my flickr from other magazines and will be putting more up as the year continues.
Enjoy,
XX
