Did you know?
In 1919, in the year that Edward H Gessner was born, in January, Nebraska was the 36th state to ratify the 18th Amendment, making it the law of the land. The 18th Amendment established Prohibition - a law against the production, transport, and sale of alcohol. Private consumption and possession were not prohibited. Several months later, the Volstead Act was passed, creating laws to enforce the Amendment. Bootlegging and bathtub gin followed.
Did you know?
In 1938, when he was 19 years old, on June 25th (a Saturday) the Fair Labor Standards Act was signed into law by President Roosevelt (along with 120 other bills). The Act banned oppressive child labor, set the minimum hourly wage at 25 cents, and established the maximum workweek at 44 hours. It faced a lot of opposition and in fighting for it, Roosevelt said "Do not let any calamity-howling executive with an income of $1,000 a day, ...tell you...that a wage of $11 a week is going to have a disastrous effect on all American industry."

1920's Fashion Is A Lot More Modern Than You Might Expect
1920's fashion began modestly and quickly evolved to what we would consider, even today, as a bit sexy or scandalous. First came the feathers, shiny beads, cloches, showing of skin, lots of fur, no corset, flappers... and then celebrities began pushing fashion limits even further. Discover the roaring 20's and it's fabulous fashion! You can almost tell what year each photo was taken based on how conservative the dress.
