Description

The listing, Vintage War Items/ Mother's Grieving Pouch w/ Handkerchiefs. has ended.

The listing is for a special item in photos. Its a cloth pouch and has 2 handkerchiefs folded inside. One cloth handkerchief is blue & one yellow. Each has a marking on them of "Fort Dix, N.J Mother" All the items are in perfect condition. The pouch has the wrinkles in which I had tried to iron them out. The flower on front of the pouch & other buds are believed to be painted on in a light & dark pink. These items will be shipped out free. Good luck to all.

Some one asked the same & I do not have a solid answer. As a purchase from a estate sale, I could not find the owner that was having it to ask. Sorry.

I know Right. When I looked at it up close, the flowers just stood out being they are painted on. Fanned back.

Tyvm for fanning back. I guess the military thought if it was bright and cheerful, it would take their minds off their grief for a little while or something.

Well, I highly doubt a hanky is going to put all at ease when their son or husband is shipping off, but your thinking is right on I bet & then some. Thanks for reply.

I'm sorry I do not. This was a found piece in a estate sale. And the owner was not around that day to ask. It was cool to me & I purchased it.

u didn't I love casper the friendly ghost and the movie also awesome

Oct 25th, 2014 at 1:36:05 PM PDT by

Ok, you have me there. The movie was great. And it was because of all the great effects as well the story being told held together with so much humor & ideas behind it. Oh well, guess my inner child was not completely molded yet of imagination way back in those knee high days.
