Ford was considered the model of manufacturing technology in the 1920s. By offering the $5 day, and other benefits, Ford was also considered a model employer. The Great Depression changed that perception and worker unrest led to a unionization drive. Ford was more resistant than the other "Big-3" auto companies (GM and Chrysler) and was the last to unionize on the eve of WW2.

This is a 10-minute tutorial for a 1940s-inspired vintage updo with victory rolls, a shell bang, and flowers. Great for a pinup look, as well. I learned a LOT from Iris' videos here on youtube. Thanks, Iris! Enjoy!!
40's TV: An NBC promo from 1949, promoting the NBC Television itself. When this aired, TV was so young that many parts of the USA still didn't get the network. This promo tells viewers which areas can get NBC programming ''Live'', and curiously, aired in a program which didn't feature any actual commercials at the. Overall an interesting example of 1940's television, in glorious black and white!.

Made by Chuck Jones in 1940. I've been looking and looking for this one and have finally found it. I thought the mouse had run away because of that makeshift bundle he carried. Love the view from the end of the beak! Remember this one?
