Retro Housewife: A Salute to the Suburban Superwoman
* by Kristin Tillotson
* Hardcover: 160 pages
* Publisher: Collectors Press; 1st edition (April 1, 2004)
* ISBN: 1888054921

A tongue-in-cheek presentation of the role of the 1950's housewife. Vintage product advertisements trumpet the man as head of household and woman as keeper of the home, with special instructions for women on how to be an attentive wife, efficient homemaker, and supermom. Kitschy and fun, this look back at how far we've come makes a perfect gift for your favorite female phenomenon.
