Pictorial Review Embroidery Magazine
This is undated, but it was issued quarterly and this is number 31. If any body has an idea about a date please share, but this is clearly from the twenties. This are the flapper gals with the bobbed hair. The cover shows two young ladies in "charming frocks, suitable for graduation".
I have a lot to show you from this gem, but you get to save the cover price of 25¢ (30¢ By Mail).
