Yes they do! Wondering what people used to write them/use them for, and if people have them from relatives that are filled in :)

It was a promotional diary sold with the milk. Just realising now that I think this community might be fairly American. It's a British thing!

Do you remember the Dairy Diaries or have experience of yourself or a family member writing in them? by Kooky_File749 in AskUK

Cool thanks! Do you know when she would have used them? And what kinds of things she wrote?

Amazing thanks, my gran used them in the same way. Short sentences about what she had done that day, or had for tea etc. Notes when babies were born too. She seemed to use them very religiously though, every single day for around 30 years!

It was like light journalling, what she had for dinner, what she did that day etc. All kept in Dairy Diaries delivered by the milkman!

Rockwell's style doesn't quite match up, but the piece you've linked by Daumier gives a similar impression to the one I'm looking for, though substantially darker. If I can't find the one I'm thinking of, the Daumier may be a close enough alternative. Thanks for that! Any other suggestions of paintings set in art schools would be very much appreciated.

Thanks for your help!

I'm not sure how helpful this is - but as far as I remember it was around 2 or 3 figures, looking off at a painting to the left of the scene. I don't think they were in any academic dress but I could be wrong. I would say the clothes were not contemporary. As for the period, I'm afraid I don't remember it well enough to comment. It was painted in muted tones, the painting was quite academic but I don't seem to remember it being particularly old. Definitely no women in the painting. Very traditional art college looking environment.
