What's the most important feature that you're looking for?
Silhouettes? Hats? Women's heads?

Hello csmgrl123~

Dover Publications is a superb source for clip art, especially that in
the vintage vein. I did a search for silhouettes on their website, and
generated a number of great books and cheap prices:
http://search.store.yahoo.com/cgi-bin/nsearch?follow-pro=1&vwcatalog=doverpublications&catalog=doverpublications&query=silhouettes
 Specifically, the following book is most like your sample:

"Spot Illustrations from Women's Magazines of the Teens and Twenties:"
http://store.doverpublications.com/0486261166.html

A search for fashion also brought up these two books, which may also be useful:

"Shoes, Hats, and Fashion Accessories:"
http://store.doverpublications.com/0486401030.html

and "French Fashion Illustrations of the Twenties:"
http://store.doverpublications.com/0486254585.html

Kind regards,
Kriswrite

Hello...The most important thing I am looking for is silhouettes of
women--exactly like the ones in the  pictures, or ones similar. With
or without hats. I know clip art of these exact images exists, because
I have seen it used on different companies products--so if you could
find the exact images that would be GREAT. Otherwise ones similar.
