The Year Was 1925

By Sarah Burris

The year was 1925, and the Roaring Twenties were in full swing. Calvin Coolidge was in the White House, The Great Gatsby had just been published, and radios were finding their way into homes across the country. It was the height of the Jazz Age—Prohibition was in full effect, but that didn’t stop the speakeasies. Across the country, two women made history as America’s first female governors.

It was a year of innovation, music, economic growth, and optimism. The styles may have changed, but that energy lives on in the homes that follow.
