Description

A white, cotton laundry bag, ca.1920s. The textile seams appear to have been sewn together by a machine, with a long straight stitch pattern visible. There are initials of "F.P.B" written in ink on the top left area, toward the opening of the bag, though the letter F appears to have been written backwards. On the inside of the bag, near the opening is the same initials typed onto a cotton label and stapled onto the fabric. With some creasing, and light soiling found, it is in good condition overall.
