    Description

    I am selling an old 2 sided Advertising Print from Dressmaking at Home. Size is 13.5" x 9.5"
    Side 1 are two newest spring fashions from May Manton featuring Skirt/Top Dresses (May Manton's were a spin-off of McCall's) One is a Circular Empire Skirt and Blouse with a fancy overwaist. The second is a tucked overwaist with girdle and a five gored Empire skirt.
    On the reverse side are a collection of ornate Spring Hats from Paris.
    The page was most likely removed from a ladies magazine and saved as a reference. It was found in an old trunk and is nice and flat. It does; however, have a brown spot and black spot (old ink?) by the middle page hats. Some of the edges have rips or tears. It would look real nice framed and protected.
    As with all vintage items, there are signs of use and wear that I feel ads to the character. It makes me wonder who used it and what has it endured. I do not deep clean items and as such will probably need to be cleaned before use or display.
    I am usually paid within three days unless contacted about unusual circumstances. Payment through PayPal only. Shipping with tracking is within one business day after payment is confirmed through PayPal.
    Most Midwestern residents may qualify for reduced shipping if I am contacted BEFORE payment for a new invoice.
    Please feel free to ask any questions about this item. Thank you for looking
