Sampler Kit Ad, 1953

Sampler Kit Ad, 1953
"Samplers have been symbols of home for hundreds of years. Many a young girl has had her first sewing lesson by filling in a sampler pattern, and often these works of household art have been passed on from generation to generation, becoming cherished heirlooms. Many samplers have become collectors' items..."

What? I can't believe there's no beer bottles strewn amongst the roses.

On the other hand, they were a bargain at $1 each, or four for $3. (With everything included except the frame.)

From the September issue of Family Circle magazine.
