Notions Department: Curvet Apron hoop


I have a vintage promotional card for Curvet apron hoops:




I used it in the "Sewing Day" display case for the Apron Strings exhibit last year:


More on the apron exhibit:

This post is part of a long series I am doing that showcases ads and products from old pharmacies and 5 and Dime stores.  All of the ads are scans from the publication Chain Store Age September 1955.  The products photographed are from my personal collection.  I am running this series on auto-post so I can work on some projects around my real house.  I will return at the end of this series (April or May) back to "normal".

I didn't know that they came in a variety of colors until I came across the ad!
