*A "variety shower" appears to be very similar to our current bridal shower, but it is done after the bride returns from the honeymoon. Games, gifts, & food were common themes, as they are now.

Thanks for visiting this flashback to 1936. I'm sure Irene would be pleased! We'd love to hear from you.
