Oct. 16, 2009 - Antique Author
Things with old fashion charm seem to be a weakness of mine... especially books. In my collection of antique books, the oldest is from 1858. I think it is too cute! It is authored by Countess Madam Montez; the name is enough to intrigue my interest! The book is titled The Arts of Beauty. I just love the vintage cover...

Looks as though women have common worries, in any era... *smile*

How amusing, a section for gentlemen.

I bet that common concern would be men.

Well, I was refering to the clear complexion, but that is true I guess! lol
The section for gentlmen was like some tips on how to fascinate women... it is quite hilarious. Covering topics like dress, topics of conversation, etc.
