These are scans from the book "Parisiennes: A Celebration of French Women." It's a fascinating and photo-heavy book that covers some history of women in France (such as the women's liberation movement there) alongside quotes and snippets from day-to-day life. It doesn't cover one particular era, but spans the early 1900s through the 1960s. Unlike staid and staged editorials, these candid portraits of life not only show a people interacting with the city of Paris, but also the sometimes humorous reactions of people around them.
