Values

This specific catalogues must have had sentimental value to the indigenous people, as it was targeted towards them. Having certain products dedicated to a certain culture or religion, can show that culture that they are of great importance to the community and their interests and needs are important to the society. A different kind of value that is held by this catalogue could be towards families. This product could have had a certain value to families as it brought the family together each night for a family meal, in which dinners and time spent together with one another are very valued within most families. As well as when comparing it to the time period and generation we are in now, it could have sentimental value to women as women are now able to go pursue their dreams and live their lives just as a man could, this shows progress for women and allows us to think we are becoming equals within the society.
