Magazines in the fifties and sixties

You may be one of those who read women's magazines waiting for the dentist or the hairdresser, but who never buy one yourself.

That was my mother's attitude when I grew up, but one of my aunts did not have this principle.

When we stayed at my grandmother's summerhouse near the Oslo fjord, there would be piles with old magazines upstairs where we slept. Norsk Ukeblad , Det Nye, Hjemmet, Kvinner og Klær are some of the names I remember. They are still around!

Anyway, coming from a home without these magazines, a rainy day at my grandmother's summerhouse was a DREAM, snuggling under the warm blanket I would read and read and read.
