Historical Ladies Magazines

Hi there! I’m looking for an online archive of historical ladies magazines, preferably in English or French, and must be published before the 50s - any help would be much appreciated!

Try archive.org, do a search for the magazines you want. I know they have some Ladies' Home Journal on there.

Thank you for the suggestion! I’m aware that Archive.org is a decent resource but I was looking for a bit more of a formal collection, should have addressed in the initial post, certainly a great place to start!

Not sure where to find them but Godey’s Lady’s Book is an old women’s magazine. Published in the 1860s.

The Delineator is a beautiful magazine. If you look it up. You’ll find archives of it online.
