Handkerchiefs, Pin Cushion, Sewing Notions, and Sweater Comb in Package, c. 20th Century

Description

Assorted grouping of handkerchiefs, most in cotton or linen and featuring a variety of decorative edges, pastel colors, and printed designs. Notably, several handkerchiefs display hand-crocheted trim, with visible signs of age or use such as light discoloration and minor stains; the purple example features a prominent dark spot. Also present is a vintage pin cushion in a round container, a selection of small sewing notion cards, and a still-sealed Dritz sweater comb for fabric care. The handkerchiefs vary in color from white, yellow, and green to purple, with one embroidered initial “H.” The handkerchiefs and sewing notions reflect mid-20th century domestic history, showcasing practical items once essential to home upkeep and personal care. These objects collectively represent the textiles and tools found in a typical household sewing kit of their era.
