A strange little side quest
If Dollhouse sends you down a curiosity rabbit hole, start here. Electric refrigeration reached the American mass market in the late 1920s, changing how households stored food and even how desserts such as ice cream could be made at home. The broader history adds one more wrinkle. In 18th-century America, upper-class men as well as women wore make-up, a reminder that beauty customs have never been as fixed as they can seem. That gives Dollhouse a little more company than it first appears to have.
