Etiquette


For some reason, I've always had a thing for etiquette books.  In high school, our library had a vintage etiquette book from the 1950's that I checked out multiple times to marvel at how vastly things have changed since then.  In college I took a class designed to prepare you for life after college which included a fancy etiquette dinner where we were taught about the different meal courses, when to use which silverware, how to make polite conversation, etc.  It was a blast! So when I found this gem at a flea market a town over, I knew I couldn't leave without it.  Even though I enjoy reading about etiquette, my favorite thing about this book is it's early '60's illustrations.  Take a peak:
