Penny Edwards Wearing a Barrel, 1945

This iconic picture shows Broadway stage star Penny Edwards walking down a New York City street wearing nothing but a barrel!

The barrel has a sign on it reading, “I did my bit, did you?” What Edwards had done was donate the clothes she was wearing to the United National Clothing Drive, collecting clothes for the war destitute of Europe.

Along with Edwards, many stars and showbiz greats contributed to this brilliant effort. What a feat of both fashion and kindness!

Macy’s Day Parade, 1931

The Macy’s Day Parade has become one of the best known and most loved traditions associated with Thanksgiving. Can you imagine the holiday without it?! But just look at this picture from all the way back in 1931, when the tradition had been running for less than 10 years.

The pomp and ceremony seen in this photo is just amazing, and even though the Parade is still a feast for the eyes, nothing can quite capture the magic of these early days of the tradition.
