At some point, every American has flirted with getting in shape--to look good, to feel good, or both. The thirty photographs presented in America Works Out--ranging from the turn of the twentieth century to the 1980s--show the depth and history of America's fitness fixation. On these pages are a myriad of groups and individuals--students, military men, politicians, even a baby--working out in assorted ways. Culled from the collections of the Library of Congress, these entertaining images, from schoolchildren solemnly raising barbells in unison to a group of retirees doing calisthenics on a Miami beach, connect us to the sweat and sore muscles of so many before us. As this book of postcards makes clear, machines and methods may change, but there's no replacement for hard work--after all, that's why we call it "working out"! Description: 30 b/w photographs. Postcards are bound together in a handy collection. Printed on heavy card stock. Postcards are oversized and may require additional postage. 4 3/4 x 6 7/8 inches. Price: $9.95 Availability: Usually ships in 3-5 business days Product #: 21405022 |
