Fall and Early Winter 1926 Altman's Magazine
When we started remodeling our house in Virginia, which was originally built in 1926, we found a hide-out that one of the daughters must have used in the time before the house was complete. She had left a flock of papers in there. I shoved them in bag and promised myself I'd go through them some day. After eight years, I finally sat down to do it today. I find that among everything is nearly the full issue of The Altman Magazine for Fall and Early Winter 1926.
I would really like to scan it to be able to share it, but I'm afraid to handle it too much since it's brittle and curled over at the top corner. Does any one have any suggestions on handling it so that I don't destroy it? Alternatively, if someone in the Dallas or Houston area has experience doing stuff like this, I'd be glad to get together to work on it.
As far as I can tell, it's in the public domain so there shouldn't be any issue with sharing it. I've also got several 1926-27 pictures clipped from magazines and parts of a couple of other magazines. I'll be scanning what I can.
