Please read & note: This is a Rights holding DVD created & produced by me and is not factory made or sealed. I strive to produce the best DVD’s possible from the sometimes VERY old Public Domain material. Films that are public domain are unpreserved and not professionally re-mastered. I re-master all of my films myself to the best possible quality achievable. My DVDs are not the quality of todays Modern DVDs or Bluray discs. If you are looking for this kind of quality then these discs are not for you. All pictures are actual screen captures from the DVDs. To keep my prices as low as possible all my DVDs are delivered in plain paper DVD sleeves and the DVDs title will be labeled on the back of the DVD envelope. (See picture) Please note this when purchasing, but also know that all of the films are very watchable. All of my DVD’s come with a menu for easy film selection. Total runtime of the DVD is 101 minutes. Item specifics are: 　 Film 1: Mother Takes a Holiday (1952) COLOR Runtime 28:39 A total gem of a movie. 3 daughters take their Moms on a camping trip, leaving the fathers at home with all the laundry. The daughters thought of a rather curious plan that since one of the fathers has a new Whirlpool washer, (in their ‘kitchen’ the size of a tennis court) that the other fathers will want one for themselves! Pretty sneaky! There is also this subplot of one of the daughters writing a thesis on Freedom of the American Woman, and she turns this 200 page report on her washing machine. All through this is a nice history of the washing machine, and how it’s constructed. Nicely photographed in rich color, and quite excellently paced, this is a MUST SEE! 　 Film 2: Making a New Day Out of Tuesday (1946) COLOR Runtime 27:24 How the Ironrite automatic ironing machine makes the life of the housewife much easier. Every Woman 1946 housewife « Mary Jones » demonstrates the « Ironrite » ironer. We’re told the postwar American woman’s « job is to make a home the American home. » An important part of this « job » is being a consumer—and buying an Ironrite ironer, « which annihilates ironing drudgery. » The rest of the film is spent demonstrating how this dangerous contraption works. It’s similar to the kind of pressers that professional cleaners use, and we see Mary using it to press shirts, skirts and dresses. She works with complete concentration, undisturbed by crying children, ringing doorbells, husbands expecting dinner or any of the constant interruptions that make doing housework so draining. This type of gadget works in a laundry where a person sits at it all day with nothing else to do, but it’s useless in a regular house. And it would be an overwhelming temptation to devious children. It’s easy to imagine them deciding to iron their younger sibling’s clothes—with the child still in them. That’s if it hasn’t overheated and burned the house down first! 　 Film 3: The Home Economics Story (1951) COLOR Runtime 25:00 Four years in the lives of four home economics students at Iowa State University…. A high school girl’s interest in home economics becomes a way for her to legitimize her desire to attend college. We see how hard it was for girls to have any real educational opportunities after high school. At the time this film was made, many parents didn’t see the need for their daughters to attend college. Would Kay, the girl in this film, be allowed to go to college at all if she wasn’t majoring in Home Economics? Probably not. Kay could be the first in her family to go to college and the voice-over reminds us, « College for Kay would mean sacrifices for Mom and Dad. Would it be worth the sacrifice? » When Kay’s college acceptance letter comes in the mail, her mother, humbly wiping her hands on her apron, is standing at her side. Kay has an chance for a larger life that her mother was denied. 　 Film 4: Cooking: Terms and What They Mean (1949) B&W Runtime 10:57 A corny film but I loved it anyway. Margie, a new bride, ruins her first chocolate cake because she doesn’t know the meaning of basic cooking terms like « stir » and « boil. » Fortunately, the narrator explains all of these terms to her, and consequently she gets to bake a new cake before her husband comes home, so he never learns of her first cooking disaster. But there are many meals to come, and if Margie is that clueless, disaster in the kitchen is only a matter of time. This is a cute, charming home economics film that says more about the gender roles of the time than it does about cooking. It would have been better, I think, if Margie had been allowed to talk, but still, her facial expressions are priceless. And the food, as expected, looks uniformly terrible (we’re talking the successful dishes). There’s even cheesy organ music in the opening and closing, though this is certainly not a Brighter Day in Your Kitchen. Highly recommended. 　 Film 5: Why Study Home Economics? (1955) B&W Runtime 9:18 Janice and Carol are two teens discussing whether their inexorable futures of homemaking require Home Economic classes. These two are not exactly Susan B. Anthony. Not that Miss Jenkins, the hypnotically friendly Home Economics teacher, is Gloria Steinem either. I would recommend watching this immediately after « The Stepford Wives » as a nice video chaser. 　 I claim ownership and rights to this media.
