freebie farmer's almanac pages


NOTE - use these pics, not the ones in the first post I put up, in case you're using a reader. Those scans were only at 72dpi cause I'm a muffinhead today.


More scans from that 1946 farmer's almanac I picked up someplace or other. 

One of the pages has the answers to the puzzles from this post. One of you asked if I would publish them and here they are. (hopefully you're still reading me lol)

Another page is called the Principal Holidays because back in 1946, the US had no national holidays! They've all been established since then, which is practically in my lifetime. I had no idea.

As always, please don't sell them. If you make something with them, I'd love to see it. No one has ever gotten back to me that they've used it...

Have fun.

freebie almanac pages

Somewhere along the way I acquired a 1946 Farmer's Almanac. That year it cost 15 cents and was in its 154th year of continuous publication. Wow, on both counts.

I'll be scanning and posting a whole lot of pages from it because they're amusing, informative of the time, and great for collages - both digital and paper. 

If you do paper-n-glue, try printing them on cream vellum. They come out looking quite vintage.  

I'd love to see anything you use them in, and as always, please don't sell them altho you can sell work made with them.

Enjoy!
