After some time I finally remembered one of the projects I had saved for "when I have time" : scanning an dputting the large bulk of my fashion magazines online. I've sporadically addedsome scans here and there but still need to do the big chunk fo work that's scanning all the Mode Illustrée books. I figur eif I've been lucky enough to score them on eBay, it's not just for me to keep and hide in a closet.
I'm almost done with January 1898 - even with free-ocr.com (bless them !) I've been working on it since Thursday. I meant to digitalize the last bits of text tonight but I'm just too tired to work any further on that. I've done some groceries, shopping, drawing, gardening but yet I still feel not productive. I think that's because of the 2 hour snap that caught me off guard this afternoon. Not used to naps, at all. Not used to being so easily tired either. Blah.
Enough ranting - until I get the scanning and OCR finished tomorrow, enjoy :
La Mode Illustrée, January 2d, 1898
La Mode Illustrée, January 9th, 1898
La Mode Illustrée, January 16th, 1898
La Mode Illustrée, January 23th, 1898
The texts are in French, so they might not be super useful to all of you, but I don't have the time to translate them. Not until I've run out of magazines to digitalize, that is... And we all know how quick those can get into my home.
