Popular culture expressions (Levy collection at JHU)

Popular culture expressions of mental, behavioral, and social disturbances, as well as early memes (drug user mischief). A good source of images for your presentations, and the Levy collection includes sheet music for the music literati.




Anything of interest to our program, family studies, etc.: please post a comment and we'll assemble a collection we can share. It appears that all images in the Levy collection from before 1923 are in the public domain, except as noted by the collections' archivists, but check it out yourselves:

Time to get back to that overdue chapter after a little quasi-recreational distraction.
