Just added a whole new page of towels to my website. Here are a few pictures:
Sharon ~ Your vintage Easter towel and The Tom Lamb towel are both adorable!
Are they both dish towel size?
Yes! And, the one below had a four leaf clover so put another check beside the list for the Irish! LOL
Again, it's our history. I doubt anyone would manufacture this one now, either!
Well, why is the woman always in the kitchen trying to win over the man? And, it shows that men only think with their stomach. LOL! See? Where does it stop?
Thank you Peggy. I think I agree with your decision but yet I think that these things just may help us to "remember history". I've just opened a shop on Etsy (no items yet) which is what brought it to mind reading their terms last evening. But the difficult part is that it is a popular category and they do sell for quite a bit of money. Also, where to you stop? What about the native american items (dancing around the fire saying "How" or "Woo Woo Woo? The Asian items (pictures of Chinese in laundries)? Blonde joke items? Fat people (Santa Claus)? Where does it stop? It really is a part of history as long as you don't make new items like that to indicate that you are prejudiced. Just sell old items to show history.
You know, I never thought of looking for signatures on either towels or hankies. I guess I better get busy looking for them. It's such fun going through them anyway.
Does anyone sell on Etsy? I wonder if they would allow Sharon's because their policy says you cannot sell anything derogatory about any race?
