Motherland

A gorgeous May Gibbs cover for the Department of Health's Handbook for Mothers, current from 1931-1959.

Love it.

  2. Richele, the prints are available on Australia ebay.

    I have never seen an original - they are museum pieces and are no doubt incredibly expensive.

    I just enjoy my lovely old books!!

I'd love you to leave me a message. Tell me what you like - and what you don't. Just remember that this is what we do in our family - it doesn't have to be what you do in yours...
