Vintage Bolts of Material Pre-1980: Wool, Mohair and Lining , Buttons: Horn & others

post #1 of 15
Thread Starter 
Some of you may have seen an earlier thread (October) regarding the sale of vintage material. For those of you who didn't, here is the background... My grandfather was a tailor who had a shop in downtown Minneapolis, MN for years. He closed the shop in the 1980's, at which time he 'retired', only meaning he continued to make suits and coats for his repeat customers! He continued as a tailor until he passed away 8 years ago. All the material and buttons I have listed here are from his business. He was an impeccable tailor and all his items were treated that way!

In October, approximately 60 bolts of material, buttons and threads were posted. There are still some of those bolts and buttons available (Please refer to earlier thread). Let me know if you are interested in any of those. Buttons are now on sale $0.05 each

Following, however, are the additional bolts many of you have been waiting for.

Please see below information about the material. Everything is referenced by the number which is attached to the material in the picture. All measurements are in yards.

I am sorry, I can not hold material. It is yours when I receive payment, so if there is something you are interested in, you will want to move quickly.

Many bolts of material have sold- there are still a few left. In an effort to finish this sale, I am discounting the material 25% of the original price.

Following is the list of material as well as the sale price that is left.

Please let me know if you have any questions. All pictures should be in earlier postings
