Pencil writing on back, front label; pages clean and readable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDrawn from the pages of The Weekly News, this illustrated collection revisits the 1930s through the stories, photographs and advertisements that contemporary readers encountered. Public events share space with recreation, travel, everyday work and the changing appearance of New Zealand life. The newspaper material preserves not only what happened but also how people presented themselves and what attracted attention at the time. Browsing the pages reveals familiar places in earlier forms, fashions and products that have disappeared, and moments whose importance was still unfolding. A nostalgic visual record for readers with an interest in social history, the book offers a way to explore the decade through its own printed traces rather than a modern retrospective alone.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"The Value Junction ","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67735434461396,"sku":"TVJ-034585","price":9.2,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/3059\/2980\/files\/TVJ-034585-1.jpg?v=1792032996","url":"https:\/\/thevaluejunction.co.nz\/products\/tvj-034585","provider":"The Value Junction ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
