[alonesolo]

Warning there are lots of pics


Besides showing this off, before I can list it I need a date:

I am thinking 20's 30's?? I haven't had a set this old in ages! Bias cut nightgown, lace inserts label is Real silk company ( this comapany dates from the 20's to 50's) and I know this is one of thier earlier labels, I had one once before.
non loaded silk coffee colored lace, DH wanted to know what was wrong with it. "Is it that color from being so old" Haha!

Oh gosh, Pauline, that is just beautiful and PINK, too!

I am no help on the date but I have had 40s with that type of bodice and bias cut skirt.

What does Non Loaded mean??:o

not tin loaded, (washed with metalic salts)

Oh and I forgot this company didn't do a whole lot during the war eras because of a silk shortage. Then after the 50's ( late ) they sold door to door. Its still in operation but another company bought it and I think it was munsingwear. (??)

Though I'm lost as far as dates are concerned, I just wanna pipe in that I love this! The satin is fresh as a daisy! The lace is fantastic. Many girls will want this for outerwear!

Kevin I looked at the nightgown and was reminded of a gown I had in the 90's and thought the same thing! Perfect for anywhere (in the bedroom or out to a fancy dinner) during the night!

I didn't think of that kevin, but now that you say it...it would be a heck of a gown! I think you are going to get a fair amount of collectors interested, not only people looking to wear
