R.I.P. Frankie Manning: May 26, 1914 - April 27, 2009

My love of Lindy Hop has translated into a love of many of the things from this bygone era. I decided to collect links on the web having to do with history, and society of the 1920s, 1930s and 1940s. If you know of a link that should go here, please email me at margiekate@lindyhopping.com. Thanks and Enjoy!
