Want to know what the stylish post WWII lady was wearing for jewelry ~ her pins, bracelets or cameo brooches – don’t forget the charm bracelets!

Or perhaps you are more interested in what she was serving her tea in ~ or her silverware and china patterns or her handbags?

It’s all here – even her smart new stationary and her gold Anklet chain - I estimate there are over 2000 different items in this late 1940s treasure!

What a beautiful quality catalog – right from the post WWII era from the “largest and finest jewelry store in the South” ~ all the popular styles!

Geo. T. Brodnax carried high end Jewelry and Houseware items – and this 84 page catalog is filled with gorgeous items of everything imaginable – and for both women and men. They occupied an entire building in Memphis that contained their Retail Store, Mail Order Department and the Manufacturing Department.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

You will find selections not only every type of fine Gold, Silver, Precious Stone and Diamond Jewelry , but also beautiful tableware and houseware items.

And, especially in the jewelry sections – when I mention rings or watches, there are a hundred different designs, models and brands – not just one page!

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Below I will list some of the types of items and patterns you will find – there are many more items in addition. I took a LOT of pictures – to share this great publication with you – page after page of beautiful black & white finely detailed illustrations of those fantastic 1948 items of the day - I am sure your computer will be slowed down!

An exceptional wide variety of items – over 2000 items – so my pictures only makes a little dent!
