This bracelet is 2 1/2 inches (6 1/2 centimeters) in diameter and features a repousse floral design on the hinge and locking pin clasp.

Trees, mountains and what looks like a lake complete the tranquil scene.

$10 USD Offers ConsideredREDUCED Advice for Women, 1940s ~ Technique That Wins Men
Collectibles:Advice For Women:Ephemera
These old advice pamphlets are so much fun to read today! While we may laugh at some of the opinions expressed therein, we have to admit, however grudgingly, that some of the tips still make a lot of sense. The graphics on the covers indicate the booklet was published in the 1940s, by the Franklin Publishing Co., Toronto, Canada. But for whom, or why, is unknown as there are no identifying marks.
