Each Thursday, your Crap Archivist brings you the finest in forgotten and bewildering crap culled from basements, thrift stores, estate sales and flea markets. I do this for one reason: Knowledge is power.

The Fragrance of Beauty

Author: “Joyce Landorf, radiant beauty.” Seriously, that’s straight from the about-the-author page.

Date: 1973

Publisher: SP Publications

Discovered at: 2nd Chance Thrift, 63rd & Troost

The Cover Promises: “Joyce Landorf deals with a host of other enemies that would rob you of your fragrant beauty — both inner and outer loveliness.”

Representative Quote:

  • “Actually, your husband has looked at you, and when he caught a glimpse of your Phyllis Diller hairdo and Mama Cass figure, he didn’t feel like he wanted to look any farther. He didn’t have any incentive to express his love, and he certainly was handicapped in trying to see what God might see in you.” (page 19)
