Title: Dutchmaid Hosiery and Underwear Trade Catalog
Description: Ephrata, Pennsylvania, Dutchmaid Hosiery Co. 1930. First Edition. Trade catalog, n. d. (ca 1930); 8 x 5 1/2; pp. [24]; stapled, off-white wraps, printed and decorated in black; illustrated with numerous images; age-toning and a few minor spots to wraps; text block stapled a bit crookedly; previous owner and local sales representative's name in manuscript to front wrap; in about very good condition. A lovely trade catalog for this early-20th-century, direct-sales manufacturer of gloves, hosiery, and underwear, it showcased, with descriptions and prices, the company's best-sellers and newest wares, including the shadowless pure silk full-fashioned hosiery, the step in pantie, the twin panel built-up shoulder slip, the up-lift brassiere, and the bloomer. Though mostly dedicated to women's undergarments, the catalog also featured the famous non-run men's union suit, men's hose, and children's band pantie. Very good .
