| The girls in the Cotton Club’s Review, NYC c.1933, (Vaudeville Gals, Ethel Waters, in the center) |
The 1920s - 1940s are most interesting to me. There was the Roaring Twenties, Black Thursday, the Depression, Volstead Act, Women's History; the list goes on and on. I also find the Gregorian, Victorian, Edwardian era interesting as well. I hope you enjoy your visit!
