"For the benefit of those ladies who ask the right to smoke in public." Puck magazine, 1908. The nightmare of some Edwardian chaps; women having the same fun they were having! But if you allow women to smoke... whatever next?! Let's look at a few details, thread;

19th July 1952: Cabaret dancer, eighteen year old Ann Sullivan enjoys a smoke on her way to work by underground. Photo by Bert Hardy. That underground train looks nicer than any underground train made during my lifetime.

Time for another "That really awful History.com article on royal palace hygiene" claim rabbit hole! Let's look at the report of feces and urine filling up the Louvre palace mentioned in the article's sections on French royal palace hygiene.

Ha, nice try boys. Mind you, I rather like the sound of being under Petticoat Rule. Household hints pamphlet distributed by the National Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage (NAOWS). circa 1910. jwa.org/media/pamphlet…

Awesome. Not just a interesting way to get some attention for jousting (more exciting than any sport), but it will also impress those people who still think you can barely move in a suit of armour. And it's also just cool. inyourarea.co.uk/news/knight-to…

Some men pose with swords, some men pose in their suit of armour, some men pose in front of their fancy castle, but some men know what to actually pose with to impress a cool lady ;)

Slightly unusual remains of the C15th rood screen at Dickleburgh, Norfolk, that doesn't get enough attention IMHO. No saints or angels here, but rather a fantastic collection of tiny village characters, devils, animals...

In Switzerland for a conference - look what I found at Basel train station, Fake History Hunter 😍📸
