I purchased these two kitchen towels sometime ago at the same estate sale where I purchased the “risqué” towel set that we recently sold! Like those towels, these had never been used and had faint storage lines and a musty smell – I have laundered, lightly starched, and ironed them and they turned out great with vivid colors! These towels are not the “new” issues that are surfacing – I have seen those and they are made of very lightweight material...

Beautiful winter scenes on this item! Made in Italy, the tray measures 12 ¼” long (at longest), 8 ½” wide (at widest). Marked on bottom: Inverno, Ardalt 5129/K, Italy.

The ashtray holder measures 5 3/8” diameter, 2 ¾” tall and is marked: Inverno, Ardalt 5129/L, Italy. It holds 4 ashtrays (4 1/8” diameter) and they’re marked Italy.

Very pretty items, perfect for holiday entertaining and are in excellent condition!!

These hankies are so cute – each one has adorable little ballerinas! Handkerchiefs measure 9 ¾” x 10” and are in excellent condition. They have been laundered, lightly starched, and ironed.

Cute half apron! It has black stripes, green waistband, and the pocket looks like a watermelon. We have 2 available. ~~~One apron has been sold -- only one is available.~~~

Very pretty ladies souvenir scarf! This one is from Hawaii and has lots of island detail. Measures 26 ½” x 27” and is sheer nylon/rayon blend.

Lovely colors and detail on this ladies scarf! Scarf is yellow with a “rope” border and there are beautiful palominos on the scarf. Could possibly be the famous “Trigger” horse of Western movies/shows? Scarf measures 32” x 29 ½” and is in very good condition. I noticed several small pinholes and I believe that’s what actually caused them – either price tags or from display. As with all our linens, scarf had been laundered and pressed.

This listing has 3 different handkerchiefs for New York – La Guardia Airport, the United Nations, and New York City landmarks (Empire State Building, RCA Building, Radio City, and Statute of Liberty)...

This is an elegant hanky with simple styling. It’s white with a lace insert that has 2 flowers and the name “Mabel”. We photographed it on a red background so you could see the name better. Hanky measures 12 ½” x 12 ½” and is in excellent condition.

This listing has a total of 6 hankies with embroidery on them! There are 3 with animals – an owl, a duck, and circus seal – and they measure 9” x 8 ½”. The other 3 have an embroidered skier on them and hankies measure 9 ½” x 10 ¼”. All are in excellent condition.

This feed sack has an unusual pattern with very pretty colors! It has a white background with beautifully detailed flowers and leaves that are in two shades of purple. The flowers could be morning glories or cornflowers and they are light and dark purple color. Feed sack has been opened and measures 36” x 42”. I have laundered and ironed it and found it to be in wonderful condition. There is a 1/8” x 1/8” thread separation/snag in one flower.

Lovely pattern on this feed sack – it’s a white background with little squares of pretty brown/tan checks that alternate with colorful flowers of yellow with brown leaves and purple and tan flowers with green leaves. Unusual!

This sack is a little smaller than others we have listed. It measures 33” long, 20” wide (approximately 40” when seam stitching is removed). It has not been cut or altered in any way, it’s just not as long as the other feed sacks...

We have listed many lovely and unusual feed sacks (and have many more to list) but this one is by far the most unusual! It has a purple/lilac color background and the design is alphabet letters U, V, W, X, Y, and Z!!

Interspersed throughout the feed sack are the letters V and X – they are white letters outlined in black and are interspersed with pretty white flowers with yellow centers.

The letters U, W, Y, and Z are yellow inside white squares and show an animal for thos...

This is a colorful feed sack – red, pink, and white with blue fruit – and is from the same estate sale as the other feed sacks we’ve listed! This one was not properly opened – it appears as though the thread was cut or torn instead of being pulled/unraveled causing the material to have a somewhat jagged top edge. Because of this, the sack measures 33” in length. Side and bottom seam have not been removed/opened. Feed sack has been laundered and pressed. Very pretty!

This is another very colorful feed sack with a pretty pattern! It has been laundered, pressed, and is in wonderful condition. Feed sack has been incorrectly opened – I’m not certain how it occurred but it has an almost diagonal type seam/opening resulting in a “non-square”. It measures 47 ½” long and 38” wide but remember it’s not even/square. Do not be deterred – this is a very pretty piece of vintage material.

Doesn’t this feed sack have an unusual pattern? It has a white background that’s almost completely covered with little blue diamonds, beige squares, and lime green color rectangles. Feed sack has been opened and measures 37” x 46”. Laundered, pressed, and in wonderful condition – I noticed a few stretched holes from the original heavy thread at top closure. Nice!

This feed sack has an almost Victorian design and is somewhat unusual in that it has a colored background rather than white! It’s a pale yellow with the pattern having dark gold, light gray, and black colors – very pretty. Feed sack has been opened and measures 35 ½” x 46”. It has been laundered, pressed, and is in wonderful condition.

Lovely and unusual pattern on this vintage feed sack! It has a white background with a pattern of green clovers and blue flowers – very pretty. Feed sack has been opened and measures approximately 37” x 42”. It has been laundered and pressed, I did not bleach or pre-soak and I notice it has a couple rust color dots. Feed sack is in wonderful condition with a couple small holes/snags.

Super collectible menu handkerchief dated December 9-12, 1970! This was for the luncheon menu for the 59th Convention of the American Hotel and Motel Association that was held in Mexico City. Hanky measures 11 ½” x 12 ¼” and is in excellent condition.
