Charles William Stores 1927
After a longer break and technical difficulties Zwischenkriegszeit.de is back with some new features. In order to keep the Fashion Development page clear after a text extension and in view of further extensions, the overview page on World War I fashion has been made into a separate page.
All 22 old images as well as 28 new images from the Charles William Stores catalog of 1927 have been uploaded in better quality. Also, from now on, itemized references to all new texts will be included. If you want to support me in my work, there is now also the possibility of a donation to Zwischenkriegszeit.de, which you can find in the imprint.
