Description
Sweet lot of vintage baby boy nightgowns and sleepwear in very good condition. C. 1960s.Four pieces in all: Three cotton gowns and one receiving blanket in the palest blue and white w/ reversible woven floral pattern.
1. Soft cotton knit nightgown in aqua blue/white diamond pattern w/ snap front. Marked "Gibbs." Delicate zig-zag topstitching at cuffs, neckline and front opening; snaps are accented w/ white satin bows.
2. Cotton knit nightgown in p
ale blue roses print,
also w/ snap front and ribbon accent. Marked "Honeysuckle."
3. Handmade cotton flannel robe probably made from a receiving blanket. Very soft and worn in pale yellow/cream flannel w/ sweet all over print of little animals (or possibly babies?) hitching their carts to stars.
4. Pale blue/white receiving blanket w/ last dry cleaner tag still attached. A woven cotton blend from reversible floral patter, the blue satin binding is worn away and frayed in several places and completely missing along one edge for about 12-15." Somewhere in my stash could be blanket satin of this same era, so if interested email for possibly including that in sold auction so you could repair this blanket.
The pieces are in reasonable condition considering their age -- No rips, holes, strained or torn seams of broken stitches on the gowns. No stains. No real signs of wear, only age. Need to be gently laundered and pressed to enjoy their delicate and unique beauty. Carefully wrapped and promptly shipped from smoke-free home.
Vintage Jenny's plea: Please do not bid on this item if you do not intent to pay. I have been on Ebay over 20 years and every year it gets worse, the non-paying bidders. That used to be a more significant "crime" on Ebay. Nowadays it just causes frustration, angst and a giant waste of the most precious commodity of all: time. Please, please, if you want it, you win it, you pay for it. Simple!
