NOS Throw-away
Collars in Box
From the old days, before they could deal
with ring around the collar with detergent, the answer was to throw the dirty one
out and just take a new one. You only changed your clothes once a week
anyway.

Polly
Parrot Child's Garters New-old-stock still in
the original box. Perhaps
the current trend to wear baggies will fade and these will come back into vogue.
Or they could use them to hold up the baggies.

Garters Boxes The good one is on
the right. "The Missing Link" Must have been from right after the
Scopes trial in Tenn. or Iowa. What a name.

NOS
in Box "Pique Pins" Safety Pins I have no idea
what the actual intended use was for these. They look kind of like
fishing leaders / swivels, but...... The whole idea is kind of quaint though. I think
they are saying that these were made by an Indian tribe back when they were
trying to integrate them into society, and before they came up with the casino
idea as the road to independence and wealth. These obviously were not the
correct path as they are marked half price in pencil and still only one packet is gone.
