Etiquette for Walking Together

1930’s Advice above from Lillian Eichler 


Etiquette Tips for Walking with a Lady
No habit is in worse taste than that of too many well-meaning men of grasping a lady companion by the elbow, while walking with her, to guide her awkwardly over every crossing and puddle. 
If it becomes necessary for a lady to take the arm of her escort she should place her hand, usually the left one, just in the angle of his elbow. – San Francisco Call, 1904
