From the yellow packaging, it appears to be from the 1950s, price had gone up to 79¢. That sounds about right. I'm still using it, no problem.Lee Ihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15721969338069074639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528684605027054522.post-63169163313019120672012-06-15T05:25:35.986-07:002012-06-15T05:25:35.986-07:00This is so interesting.

I try to avoid things that need to be ironed but sometimes a person just has to get the iron out.<br />Thanks for the post. Have a great day.Thoughts N Ideashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09283413913319302001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528684605027054522.post-69434195535792105112012-06-11T23:03:44.106-07:002012-06-11T23:03:44.106-07:00Thanks everyone, for the kind comments!

My mother used them all the time to keep certain fabrics from getting shiny when pressed.<br /><br />I don't keep clothes that have to be pressed - - - if they can't come out of the drier in wrinkleless condition, they go away. ;-)Keetha Broyleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07850398844489825600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3528684605027054522.post-54274555394657262822012-06-07T12:21:40.221-07:002012-06-07T12:21:40.221-07:00I adore vintage graphics, these are so much fun!
