thought everyone might enjoy as much as I did

the only reference I can find to this label (which is so cute) is in a 1909 book "Sheldon's Manufacturing Trade (the Cutting-up Trade): Comprising Manufacturers of Men's, Women's and Children's Garments" which lists the address as 256 west 38th street

It's in really good condition all things considered- hard to photo well

do you guys think its 20s?

It does look like 1920s. Lovely! Great looking label too.

I would recommend taking it off a hanger and laying it flat. That old silk is ephemeral to say the least.
