I'm putting together an ad for a speakeasy that has been around since the 1930s. I am looking for some line drawings to illustrate Eat / Drink / Be Merry.

We used to have books that we'd cut and scan. But I don't have access to them any more...

Any thoughts?

I just googled "vintage clip art" resulting in several good sites for you to explore.

"vintage clip art" - Google Search

Good luck!

I get email from Dover Publications with their free clip art... they have the old books like you mention, but converted to CD/download. I'd give them a search.

edit: WTF with the autoinsertion of metatags????

Thank you. I did do a search but I think the specifics were more helpful.
