We are proud to announce the newest issue of Zelda Magazine for 2022, just in time for the holidays!
This is our second annual issue, and we have some terrific content for you! Start off right with Garret Richard’s notes on a Knickerbocker Cocktail and read all about the risqué “California Nightingale,” actress Betty Blythe. Ilise Carter, author of “The Red Menace: How Lipstick Changed the Face of American History,” answers questions about lipstick in the Jazz Age, and Zelda reveals facts about contrasting collared shirts. Jimmy Vargas interviews Dylan Brookes of the Australian Art Deco Avalon Restaurant and Cocktail bar, and we feature interviews with burlesque star Clara Coquette, band leader Dean Mora, and Coney Island USA’s new artistic director Adam “Realman” Rinn.
We travel to the mid-Atlantic to guide you through the Art Deco buildings and early 20th Century arts and culture of municipal neighbors Allentown and Bethlehem, Pennsylvania. As usual, Mr. Burton offers sage advice on vintage community matters, and we present snapshots from Jazz Age events from around the world. Finally, we highlight a few recipes from 1934’s “The Presto Book of Menus and Recipes” by Della Thompson Lutes.
Lastly, please consider all our sponsors for gifts, activities, fashion, and other delights!
Cheers to you, and have a wonderful 2022!
