NEAR MINT CONDITION with ORIGINAL STORE BOX
This beautiful hankie would be the perfect wedding present for that Bride to Be. It's New, in that it is still in its original box and has never been used. It's Old, because this store went out of business way back in the 70's, and it definitely fits the Blue part of the old saying. Now all she has to do is Borrow something, and she's all set!
Still in it's original folds as it was displayed in the store, this white hankie has a large design of blue embroidered flowers, possibly dogwood blooms.
The orange box, with the store name of Odum Bowers & White emblazoned across the top, is in excellent condition. There are a few tiny specks of color that have flaked off the box, but the corners are intact and the box is essentially in perfect condition.
I carefully unfolded the handkerchief, but didn't try to flatten it out. It is about 16" square.
There are two very small spots of foxing on the handkerchief, and there is some foxing on the box. The tissue paper, of course, has darkened with age, but there are no tears.
So the handkerchief, the tissue, and the box are all but perfect.
