Julie,
Here are three sources that might help:
EyeWitness - The 20th Century
http://www.eyewitnesstohistory.com/20frm.htm
(Provides some original voice recordings.)
USA History: Events - Spartacus Schoolnet
http://www.spartacus.schoolnet.co.uk/USAevents2.htm
Authentic History Center
http://www.authentichistory.com/1920s.html
(This is one of the best. Provides print and images of artifacts from the 1920s.)
Sincerely,
Dr. Michael Bell
