Straight from a close friend's family estate comes some of the nicest grouping of vintage clothing I've seen in a while. All items are from a smoke-free home and have been laundered and pressed.

My friend and her husband were born around 1950 to 1951.

This little grouping came with a note from my friend indicating that her grandmother made these for her in 1951. Based on that I would estimate that this would fit a baby until about 12 months or so.

These are all made of either cotton or polyester or a blend. Polyester came out in 1951, so perhaps her Grandma was experimenting with this "new" miracle fabric? There are no tags of course.

You are buying 7 pieces in all, all either short sleeved or sleeveless.

All of these are beautifully and lovingly handmade by a grandma who was obviously thrilled to finally have a granddaughter.

The attention to detail shows that grandma was a very skilled seamstress. There is beautiful embroidery and lace, mother of pearl buttons, and other details that you just don't see on commercial and modern clothes anymore.

These have been worn and well loved, and some of them have faint stains hotsell. (SEE PICS) There is nothing that I find distracting nor devaluing.

These tops would be adorable on a baby or small toddler, regardless of gender. They would also be beautiful on nice vintage or antique dolls.

I decided to sell these as a grouping since I do not specialize in clothing.

So you are buying all 7 pieces for ONE price.

This would be great for a doll collector or an antique dealer who specializes in baby clothing.

I assess these as being in good to excellent condition, showing gentle wear and laundering.

You are buying these as is, in as found condition. These are over 70 years old and are quite nice and extremely well preserved. They have been stored all of these years in a home that is pet friendly and smoke-free.

Remember that unlike brand new items, vintage and antique items will often show signs of use consistent of age.

Feel free to reach out if you have questions about this or anything in my shop.
