Where were the original ones produced, Linda?

I found this link saying it was established in 1975, it makes me wonder if they found old lots somewhere and added their label.

Reminiscence used to sell vintage out of its store as well as the cheap repro. I remember that. 1980-Early 1980s.

I remember that they slapped their label on everything. A couple friends who were designers tried to sell to them, you know consign. But I truly don't recall if they slapped their labels on the vintage. Really don't remember. But I do remember Amy Arbus photographed for them, for the Village Voice and the Soho News, ads.
