1925 HANDWRITTEN MANUSCRIPT DIARY OF A MAN CHASING PREDATORY FLAPPER ERA GIRL
1056On offer is an interesting relic of the post suffrage, post World War I era being the 1925 personal handwritten manuscript diary of one Fanny Ackey of Scranton Pennsylvania and being mostly an account of a young girl who truly embraces and defines the Flapper Era. One account was when she was with a fellow named Darwin [who according to a newspaper article in the book was the Mayor of Scranton], and got into a major accident with her in the car. There was also one fellow, Archie, who must have been the main man early in the year but got jealous with all her side dating. One night, Fanny saw him with another woman and she was outraged he would dare be with someone else. She showed him by dating everyone who looked at her. There are at least 8-10 different men mentioned throughout the book. She also was a stenographer and makes a number of notes in shorthand. One can only imagine the secrets within! She also wrote 2 poems in the diary. Overall a rather comical look into the past of this woman's romances and social encounters. ; Manuscript; 32mo - over 4" - 5" tall; FLAPPER ERA, GENDER STUDIES, SOCIAL STUDIES, PROMISCUITY, FLAPPER ERA, SEXUAL REVOLUTION, HANDWRITTEN, MANUSCRIPT, DOCUMENT, LETTER, AUTOGRAPH, DIARY, JOURNAL, LOG, KEEPSAKE, WRITER, HAND WRITTEN, DOCUMENTS, SIGNED, LETTERS, MANUSCRIPTS, HISTORICAL, HOLOGRAPH, WRITERS, DIARIES, JOURNALS, LOGS, AUTOGRAPHS, PERSONAL, MEMOIR, MEMORIAL, PERSONAL HISTORY, AMERICANA, FEMINISM, FEMINIST, PRE SUFFRAGE, SUFFRAGE, SUFFERAGE, WOMEN STUDIES, TURN OF THE CENTURY, antiquité, contrat, vélin, document, manuscrit, papier Antike, Brief, Pergament, Dokument, Manuskript, Papier oggetto d'antiquariato, atto, velina, documento, manoscritto, carta antigüedad, hecho, vitela, documento, manuscrito, Papel,
