The aesthetics in these (swedish) Form magazines from the 50s and 60s feels so up to date. But not always the text content:
"Just as sure as boys will choose balls, and girls will choose dolls to play with – they will choose different patterns and colors on their wallpaper." The text to this ad says.

I love these, especially the 2 striped ones. (Also LOVE your blog header!)
Hey there! I just wanted to say hi, and that I think your blog is so cute!! :) It's adorable!
Wow, very, very modern-looking, particularly the black and white ones, but, yes, I kinda sometimes forget how fast cultural changes have been...
Very nice patterns and forms... however I could spare the words :)
Nu fick du mig att börja tänka på det där med pojkar och flickor och färger och leksaker. Det skulle vi kunna göra något gemensamt jobb om!
Cissi, det skulle vara intressant!
So like many things from the 50s and 60s...
vilken fröjd för ögat, mums mums!
Ha - I posted the cover of a 1963 Form magazine the other day:

I love my old Swedish mags!
Amazing how some things come around to being fashionable again. These patterns are so now! Hopefully some other things stay where they are, old fashioned ideas in the past, thank you... :-)
Jättefina mönster!
wow, these are wonderful, although not quite the words
I love swedish aesthetics, so simple and timeless.
