Managing to capture both the beauty and the ugly of the history of the 20th century, Lise Mary Magdalene Tallant (1888-1972), aunt of the New Orleans author Robert Tallant, assembled this scrapbook full of color trade and greeting cards and advertisement clippings. 

Images of women and flowers are prevalent throughout the forty-five pages the scrapbook is comprised of.

Other interesting and varied clippings can also be found inside it.
