Diving into the past

[janedavitt]

I love many authors now almost forgotten, one of whom is Agnes Sligh Turnbull. I discovered that as well as the novels I know so well, she wrote for US magazines in the 1920s and 1930s. Armed with that small shred, I went searching and discovered university digitalized copies of the magazines and I'm searching through them. It's hard to search a copied page for a word (or author) as it's a single image, so I'm scrolled for days but I have found my first story by her -- and seen some truly incredible ads.
