There was a cart filled with "things" to put out on the floor. As I passed the cart, I noticed a bag with what looked like fabric. But the bag was actually filled with Hankies!! Quite an assortment of hankies.
This souvenir scarf is in perfect condition.
Somehow I have a feeling there are folks out there who collect these type of souvenirs.And I think these hankies are reminiscent of the 60's.
And this fine hanky still had the label attached (Carol Stanley Made in Switzerland).
I used to buy my daughter hankies when they were $1.00 each. Now the Antique shops are charging $2, $3 and up for one little hanky. This was a bonus prize find. The whole bag was $2.06. Thank you Goodwill!
Linking up with Coloradolady's Vintage Thingie Thursday Thrifty Things Friday and Would you Buy it Wednesday.

Great find!!!
You indeed found some very vintage hankies. I have several that belong to my mother and other relatives. We never went anywhere without one.
Oh man what a find. Those are the kind of deals I look for at Goodwill and thrift shops. I love a bag of things, buttons, old unmatched jewelry. I use all these things on art and stitchery projects. Nice assortment.

Definitely would have bought those. What a buy you got! My sister-n-law and I both collect vintage hankies. Those are beautiful.
What a GREAT find! Our Goodwill has gotten "on" to the vintage/antiques that come in, and has most of them in a separate section, priced WAY higher than the antique stores. Happy Thursday - Tanya
