I used to collect these post-World-War-II needlebooks when I spent my spare time in thrift stores, paying a quarter or even more. The graphics were weird and entertaining.
Often depicting sewing as a social event:
A mid-20-century Japanese view of the American customer.
They are a lot more expensive now but I still collect the pictures from online auctions.
And still weird.
There are also German versions
Sewing as Fun, fun, fun!
The strangest graphics connect sewing with the atomic age.
Space travel
And supersonic aircraft
Hah! If technology is so great how come needles don't have eyes
big enough that I can thread them?
