Gas mask, some WeSC headphones and a random cap.

It's a booklet that was published originally in 1959. Lots of photographs, and information about their way of life back then. Basically looks pretty idyllic.

Very cool! I love old books. The way they look, the way they feel, their smell, and the things in them. I'm very curious what that one says about the Amish during that time.

It's my understanding that it would look essentially identical today - almost seems tempting sometimes, but my distaste for facial hair is probably a deal-breaker though...

It often seems very tempting to me. I'm not a great fan of the modern world.

It seems that the Americans of the time didn't know very much about them, because it talks about people thinking how strange they are, and how quaint. Which is odd, because the 50s now seem quite quaint to me. I guess every age looks back at more simpler times with some nostalgia.

I'm right there with you. I just couldn't devote myself to their religious ideals. If there was a community that lived that way without religious rule, I'd so be there.
And... I like beards. ^_^

I apologize if I've already posted this but,
First thing I save up for when I get a job is this. It's SO PRETTY.
And affordable.

That's a really cool thing to devote yourself too. Both the buying of the instrument and the music itself.
