Honestly when I look at the Montgomery Ward catalogue I get itchy scissor fingers. Farstarr, Postmuse, (Dumpsterdiver if you're there?) please tell me I'm not alone. It looks like heaven to collage!

I want that coat with the pouffy sleeves and gigantic lapels.

And, yes, Andy. I would be having a blast collaging with this catalog. I'm trying to find wintergreen oil so I can use it to transfer vintage images from some of the ephemera I already have onto cards. I'm not very good with cutting things out neatly, though I suppose I'll get better with practice.

there are about 400 pages in this catalog and I certainly don't intend to use them all -- very willing to share. Anyone want some, and are there any items in particular you'd like me to look for in it? I'll cut you out some pages & send them to you!

It's so much easier doing digital art -- you can find just about any image you want or need online. So I'm very glad to help my 'real cut & paste' buddies!

I'll also include a few pages from the vintage typing text I got at the antique mall. It's awesome!
