    How would someone clean vintage acetate taffeta?

    seconding Amy's opinion. The other issue is that there are probably other fabrics involved in the lining or facing. And different fabrics, even if they don't shrink much, often shrink in different ways. Many of us learned the hard way when linings ended up sticking out underneath a dress, or...

    some more attic things

    the roll up thing reminds me of a Victorian version of either a toiletry kit for travel or a purse organizer.

    Vintage safari shirt - is it 1970s? 1940s?

    Got it. But if it was a tourist-on-vacation purchase in a country where guayabera shirts are more common, it would be sold under whatever laws exist in that country.

    Vintage safari shirt - is it 1970s? 1940s?

    The 1972 mandate for care labels was from the FTC and aimed at clothing manufactured for sale in the US. Other countries & regions have their own mandates, but bottom line, if your shirt was not sold in the US first time around, dating via care tag has room for error.

    Vintage safari shirt - is it 1970s? 1940s?

    I agree with Marsha and Donna that it is not 40s - a 40s shirt would have flat felled seams instead of serged seams and wouldn't have those side seam vents.

    Career Casuals by Sy Frankl, need info!

    If you search this forum for "Sy Frankl", you will find two other threads about him and a Casualmakers tag. I'm guessing Career Casuals was another line from the same company.

    Fur help please - ermine or rabbit?

    But mink has guard hairs, yes? I definitely think of the black tipped tails when I picture ermine, but our fur resource has several all-white ermine examples, as well as an all-brown jacket, which I did not expect.

    Fur help please - ermine or rabbit?

    The previous owner of this 1930s velvet evening jacket described the fur collar as ermine. I assumed she was mistaken and that it would be rabbit. I have no personal experience with ermine, but as I compare the images and the descriptions of ermine and rabbit in our Fur Resource with my eyes...
