One thing I loved about growing up in the 1950s and 1960s was that so many lovely paper goods were available for holidays. Today, it's sort of like that again. I have found very pretty paper napkins at the Christmas Tree Shop, Dollar Tree, and even Walmart. But it's hard to beat the vintage paper goods from the mid-twentieth century, don't you agree?
I recently found a small and long-stored stash of vintage paper goods in my dad's cupboard. Not anything he will ever use. These napkins (which have a matching tablecloth) have a scalloped edge and a pretty design of gold stars along with a border of pine needles, holly, and little green pine cones. So sweet. These are Party Papers by Pakay, and a package of 25 napkins cost 30¢ back in the day. I was intrigued to see that these were manufactured by the Nashua Corporation in Nashua, NH.
Hope you've enjoyed this vintage treat as much as I did. What a fun find!
Those are very pretty.
