A 1940's Kitchen From www.historybuff.com During World War II, the wallpaper industry was dealt a serious setback. The War Production Board classified wallpaper as a non-essential commodity and greatly reduced the number of allowable styles, new patterns and sample books, and prohibited the use of metallic bronze and aluminum powders. Manufacturers were required to use a lighter weight stock of paper which affected the overall quality of the wallpaper. Full production resumed in 1945 when the limits were removed and manufacturers increased production to keep pace with sky-rocketing consumer spending. The years immediately following the war were a booming period for wallpaper sales in the 1946-1947 season manufacturers sold more than 400,000,000 rolls. The jump in sales can also be attributed to postwar consumers who purchased wallpaper as relief from the plain walls of the stark modern interior. from www.historybuff.com A 1930's North American Kitchen MONTANA HOMELAND Under the theme of "People and Environment," this exhibition examines what life was like in Montana's past. see more pictures www.his.state.mt.us A British 1940's living room go here for a bigger picture www.propascene.com This living room looks a lot like the one in the house where I grew up. The fireplace is almost identical, this was the only room in the house that was warm in the winter. We had fireplaces in the front room and the bedrooms, but coal was rationed until 1958, so we could never use the other fireplaces. Our bedrooms were so cold, we all had our own hot waterbottles.
