Vintage Fabric Pin-Up Girls Border Print Yardage Springmaid 1951 36 Inches Square
Fantastic vintage printed fabric has some hidden surprises- 4 scenes of ladies in various clothing-compromised situations. All embedded in a paisley like pattern. It feel like rayon and measures about 36" square( make a scarf!). Excellent condition. The panels of ladies are about 4 1/2" tall. It is a rare print and whimsical as all get out.
In doing some extra reseacrh, I fell up a blog at The Vintage Traveler that had this info to share:
First, I found some 1940s and early 50s American Fabricsmagazines. I’ve loved this vintage magazine for years, and had quite a few issues, but I’m always on the prowl for more. They come up on eBay pretty often, but they are big and bulky, and the postage is always expensive, as are the magazines themselves. So I was delighted to find a stack of them at the flea Market on Friday.
Check out the Dali cover!
I spent the day yesterday recovering from the heat, enjoying theAmerican Fabrics. And I got a bit of a surprise when I looked through the last one. The issue is on paisleys, and one of the prints featured was the Springmaid Persian print that I posted here a couple of weeks ago.
