1944 Hats, bags, gloves and sleepwear etc(Eaton Catalog)

[Amelie]

So here are the pictures I told RetroModelSari I'll post. They are all, like I said in the shoes thread from a 1944 Eaton summer catalog

I've also included one page with some stockings on it, just so we want to kill ourselves looking at the prices

if you'd like to see any of the item bigger or clearer, just let me know, I am using a camera and not a scan, so some of them are tricky to see

Dear lord, what a source of divine torture!!!

I love to look at the pictures, but it's torture not being able to have the items shown.

Thanks for sharing these.

you can't imagine how hard it is to actually own this catalog without being able to order from it... it's like being so close to the thing but... still so far :eusa_doh:

Wonderfull!!! I especially love the hats and the gloves!!! To die for!!!

 

[Amelie]

Whats good with them, compare to the shoes, I that they can eventually be more easy to reproduce lol

Great stuff, especially the hats. Too bad they arn't for sale today It's also nice to see that models back then also looked like regular women, not anorexic stick figures.

This is so funny as I keep many different older magazines on my coffee table. Something about them calms me. I love to look at them when I am having a stressful day. I think it is because whether real or not it takes me back to a simpler time.
Just as much as I love your photos of the hats and purses and gloves I always get a bit peeved that we don't have the beautiful bath towels it seems they made back then. Even came in ornate boxes. I am tempted to contact Cannon and send them some old photos. lol

Glorious! I wish they still made and sold these.
And the prices are to die for.

I get a kick out of these old catalogs. I am always tempted to send in the order form . Maybe the vintage gods will fill my order!

I am having heart palpitations! lol Amelie thanks sooo much for posting this! I am soooooooooo envious of the lucky ladies that actuallu got to have these pieces! :rage:

 

[LadyDeWinter]

Awww, if I could I would buy several of these cute hats. And some sleepwear too. Thank you for sharing the pics.

Thanks for adding to my lusting Amelie!

Redpony you're so funny.. I've often thought that too, sending in an order. That would be a great story for a movie, lol!
